1Robot Performance

Having built many robots, the knowledge required for designing the power train has been condensed in an online html JavaScript calculator, making it more convenient to test various motor, gearbox wheel battery combinations to achieve the desired design specifications.
With the tool now online, presets for the various robots have been inserted so that the performance of our platforms can be easily compared.

2AD Robot
