Golf Robot

My wife Victoria with my support created a robot based on the LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0. The robot was presented at the exhibition-exhibition "Physical Modeling and Robotics". An alternative goal is to show students the ease of creating robots based on the LEGO Mindstorms constructor.
Tasks of the robot:
1. Drive to the ball (the ultrasonic sensor determines the distance).
2. Analyze the color of the ball with a color sensor and hit the ball in case the color of the ball is in the specified range.
3. Drive off and turn 90 degrees.

Leaving ViTec Co., Ltd

 Unfortunately, after certain political events, the decision was made to move forward. I am immensely grateful to the company ViTec Co., Ltd for the opportunity and to my colleagues for their support. I am especially thankful to the owner and director, Maxim Soroka, for everything he has done for me. At the company, I worked with machine vision. Since I signed a non-disclosure agreement, I can only share a couple of photos. It was a wonderful experience, and I will never forget it.
