Beach Cleaning Robot

Background: 

The Beach Cleaning Robot Project is an undergraduate student lead project that aims to design and manufacture a trash-collecting robot to support coastal cleanup efforts. The goal for this team is to produce a remote-controlled, scalable prototype that can collect trash the size of plastic water bottles and snack bags/containers. 

Goal and Objectives:

• Finalize a list of requirements and constraints for our design 

• Create a concept that meets all requirements and attributes

• Finalize CAD of concept by 05/12/2023

• Complete a functional prototype by 06/9/2023
