Problem Statement

Robots are useful for a variety of tasks and can be very fun to make. For our design of a golf striker robot, we will use our knowledge of core mechanical engineering principles to achieve our goal of a functional end product. Our research into existing devices of such nature showed us how useful these robots are in the golf industry. Whether it is to see how far technology ad machine learning has evolved or to test how golf equipment will stand under duress, these robots provide useful feedback for companies and players. Seeing devices like Golfi, LDRICK, and the GolfLab and using the feedback from Dr. Potter, we can draft and design the parts required to build our robot, while also adhering to codes and standards.
