Flobotics Engineering Showcase Video from 2022.
Team: A capstone project team in the MXET program at Texas A&M, named Flobotics. They named the robot Ventus.
Team Members:
- Joseph Kim
- Luke Bettinger
- Yuzhe Pei
- Gyuyoung Jeong
Purpose:
Monitor airflow in 3 dimensions for indoor greenhouse applications. Uses SLAM and creates a map of the facility in order to take measurements all around. Then, the airflow measurements (x,y,z) are stored in the map to produce a visual vector map of the air movement in the facility.
Features:
Autonomous driving, measures airflow down to 0.1 m/s, records temperature and humidity, and encrypts data & transmits over IoT using SigFox technology. This is also a form of LoRa. The data is stored on an external USB for quick collection locally.
