Code written in C++ and RobotC for a first year design project, which allowed a robot to plot functions on a whiteboard. This project was created collaboratively with Kyle Hong and Kevin Gu.
- Can accept, parse, and simplify input of any number of arbitrary polynomial terms in any order that the user desires
- Capable of generating a plotting instruction file for any mathematical function
- Limit switches allowing consistent coordinate tracking
- Movable pulley system to lift the end effector
- Ultrasonic sensor keeps track of the robot's distance from the wall as a safety feature
- Robot can both plot and erase the whiteboard.
