📘 ABU Robocon 2025 – Problem Statement (PS 2025)

  • Competition: ABU Asia-Pacific Robot Contest 2025
  • Theme: Robot Basketball
  • Host: Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
  • Objective: Design and build autonomous/semi-autonomous/manual-operated robots that complete a basketball challenge (2v2), requiring tasks such as shooting, collecting, and passing balls within rule constraints on a contest field.
  • Focus: Dynamic Game, Precision, coordination, autonomous control, and regulation-compliant performance.

🚀 Overview

Technical Team Member of the Robot Study Circle (COEP) for ABU Robocon 2025.
Contributed primarily to the mechanical subsystem, focusing on mechanism reliability,
structural stability, and on-ground robot readiness during development and competition.

  • Role: Mechanical Design, Fabrication, Integration & Field Support

⚙️ Key Contributions

  • Jump Mechanism Development

    • Contributed to the design, iteration, and stabilization of the robot’s jump mechanism and base drive
    • Focused on mechanical robustness and repeatability under dynamic loading conditions
    • iterated from an initial 10\,cm jump height to 21\,cm through successive changes to spring preloading, cam geometry, and release timing against a revised target of 30\,cm.

  • In-House Manufacturing & Fabrication

    • Majority of mechanical fabrication carried out in-lab
    • Manual fabrication using hacksaws, bench drills, hand files, and fitting tools
    • Extensive use of 3D printing for brackets, mounts, spacers, and rapid prototyping
    • Vendor-sourced components limited to laser-cut plates and off-the-shelf gears

  • Structural Stability & Assembly

    • Ensured chassis alignment, rigidity, and fastener reliability during aggressive maneuvers
    • Performed continuous inspection, reinforcement, and mechanical maintenance throughout the season

  • Test Environment & Field Setup

    • Designed and fabricated the complete test structure for Basket/hoop
    • Built pillars, trusses, and mounting boards in accordance with official ABU Robocon dimensions
    • Ensured repeatable and regulation-compliant testing conditions for mechanism validation

  • System Integration & Coordination

    • Worked closely with the electronics team to provide proper mounting, protection, and cable routing
    • Proactively ensured electronics-side requirements were met to avoid integration bottlenecks

🏁 Outcome

  • Contributed to improving mechanical robustness, on-field reliability, and overall system readiness under competition constraints.
