Converged mechanical, electronic, electric, SW, and wireless communication technologies to produce and operate balancing robots
“Integrate knowledge and skills of various majors to improve creativity and problem-solving skills”
[January 31, 2020]
<3rd YU RoboCup>
This contest, which was held at the YU Automobile Hall lobby at 1 p.m. on January 30 sponsored by the YU College of Mechanical and IT Engineering and the Innovation Project Team, was hosted together with the YU Department of Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering. A total of 30 students of the departments pursuing the university innovation project participated in this contest.
The ‘YU RoboCup’, which is in its third year, is a soccer tournament using self-made ‘balancing robots’. The robots’ width, height, weight, motor output, and wheel size are designated by specific rules and the robot frame material and type, internal controller, communication equipment, battery, console, etc. can be freely built by students.
YU College of Mechanical and IT Engineering Dean Kim Young-tak, who oversaw this tournament, said, “In the fourth industrial revolution, the robot engineering sector that integrates various majors including mechanical, electronics and ICT is drawing a lot of attention. Students make and operate robots based on their knowledge in their major in order to enhance understanding on technological convergence and will be able to improve their problem-solving capacities.” He also added, “We will develop and operate various educational programs where students can apply their knowledge in lecture halls to help them enhance the practical capacities and creativity of students.”
Meanwhile, the ‘Mura’ team of School of Mechanical Engineering seniors Shin Hyun-woo and Hwang Il-geum won this tournament, while the ‘Football is Soccer’ team made up of Department of Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering freshmen Hwang Se-jin and Bae Jae-hyun took second place.
