Our project is an autonomous robot that can compete in a sumo match, tug-of-war, push, and pull event. Its ability to perform these tasks by executing the navigation objectives while staying within the bounds of the field. For the sumo match and block push, the robot will find the object it needs to push, reorient itself, and push the object to the edge of the sumo ring. This is important because designing a robot to detect and move obstacles autonomously can provide scientists with research opportunities and help first responders save people’s lives in hostile environments.
