Diseño, automatización e implementación de sistemas trampas para una arena de batalla de robots

Abstract

In this degree work called "DESIGN, AUTOMATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF TRAPS SYSTEMS FOR A BATTLE ROBOTS ARENA", shows the solution to the problem posed by the ESPOCH Robotics Club, which consisted in the implementation of a traps system for its Robot Battle arena located in the Robotics and Industry 4.0 laboratory of the FIE at ESPOCH. This degree work has as main objective to implement and automate five traps with different associated effects. To achieve this, use was made of the methodology of the VDI 2221 standard, which allowed to reach a design according to what was specified in the list of requirements. For the automation, a PLC was implemented with programming in Ladder language, which guaranteed the reliability at the moment of activating the system in a precise and safe way, fulfilling all the requirements requested by the ESPOCH Robotics Club. Each trap was designed with the knowledge acquired in the career, where the mechanical design and automation took center stage. This allowed to reach a detachable system, where each of its traps performs specific functions that add a greater difficulty for the robots participating in the Robot Battle events organized by the ESPOCH Robotics Club.
