Abstract
I plan to make a tracked vehicle which utilizes a laser as the cannon. This vehicle will use DC motors, servos, touch sensors, slider bars, a tank chassis, and a laser, all based in Phidgets, as well as some Arduino components. The goal in creating this vehicle is to illustrate the precision of Phidgets devices, when paired with Java. The vehicle will be mobile, but attached to the computer via USB interface. Wireless RF could be used as a retrofitted modification, but will not be available for this model, as it would require an external power source (battery pack). To show its accuracy, I will use a high-powered precision laser. This project will be the ultimate display of Java’s implementation of the Phidgets interface, in a robotic device with practical application.
