NEED STATEMENT

Gesture Based Robotics

Gesture based robotics is slowly gaining its momentum in industrial applications. A science museum is interested in showcasing this new trend.

Sl Questions such as This Question helps the designer to
1. Enhance audience experience,integrated digital into the visitor experience Objective
2. Create an extraordinary center piece digital Objective
3. Provide digital experience through the digital labs Objective
4. Increase access through digitalization of the collection Objective

Clients Objectives

sl Objectives
1. Cost of the tank should be feasible
2. It must be easy to use
3. It must be properly insulted(electrical safety)
4. Target must be hit
5. The recoil time must be minimum
6. The movement of the tank must be smooth

Questions asked to the client

sl questions answers
1. What would be the line of sight? 20 feet
2. Do you need visibility/night operation? No
3. What range of wireless transmission would be needed? 5m
4. What number of gestures would you feel comfortable to use? As minimum as possible
5. What type of mode of locomotion would be needed?
6. How should be the movement of the missile launcher?(This includes the vertical and horizontal movement of the launcher on the tank) Upward and downward,left and right.
7. What should be the shape of the missile? Pebble.
8. What should be specifications of the missile to be launched? Has to be smooth.
9. How strong must the tank be?(Like what conditions the tank must sustain) Strong enough to sustain uneven topography.
10. Any extra specifications the client whats? As per choice.

Constraints

sl QUESTIONS SUCH AS CONSTRAINTS
1. Line of sight(20 feet) Constraints
2. Number of gestures(less then 12) Constraints
3. Range of wireless transmission(5m) Constraints
4. Size of the tank(18 inches12 inches12 inches) Constraints

Functions required

1.The gesture must be limited. 2.The operation of the bot must be easy. 3.The bot must able to shoot in projectile motion. 4.The bot rotates from 20 to 160 degrees.

sl Observation and from lit.survey Requirements
1. Cost of the tank As minimum as it could be without major losses
2. Size of the tank should be very large So it would be easy to carry
3. It should shoot the target accurately Auto location of the target
4. The material should be strong So that it does not break
5. It should be easy to use So as to use it more efficiently

Problem Definition( version 1.1)

Design a tank that is electrically well insulated,is safe with enough space to store missiles and easy to use and affordable.

Problem Definition ( version 1.2)

constraints

  1. Cost
  2. Number of gestures
  3. Range of the wireless transmission
  4. Size of the tank
  5. Line of sight

Definition : Design a tank that is electrically well insulated, is safe with enough space to store missiles and easy to use,with specific number of gestures, range of wireless transmission, size of the tank and line of sight and affordable.

Problem Definition(version 1.3)

Functions

1.The gesture must be limited. 2.The operation of the bot must be easy. 3.The bot must able to shoot in projectile motion. 4.The bot rotates from 20 to 160 degrees.

Definition ( version 1.3) : Design a tank that is gesture controlled, electrically well insulated, is safe with enough space to store missiles and easy to use, with specific number of gestures, limited range of wireless transmission, limited size of the tank and limited line of sight and has to be build in an affordable range of price.
