Autonomous COTS Bots

The goal of this project is to use the Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Bots platform and add inter-robot communication and autonomy to perform cooperative tasks.

COTS Bots
The primary requirements for our robots are:


 * Affordable (<$500)
 * Easy and quick to assemble (e.g. <30 minutes, no solidering)
 * Computationally powerful
 * Programmable using modern languages and fully featured IDEs.
 * Durable
