CU Robotics Club
The Advertisment-Bot
"The Keg-Bot"
What is it?
The Advertisment-Bot, or Keg-Bot's main purpose is to represent something of notice
when advertising for club events. Rather than a simple poster, our ad will drive around
campus. The sturdy construction will allow us to drive the Keg-Bot anywhere and attach
almost anything to the frame. Posters, flashing lights, and moving arms will eventually
adorn this creation. Each year the new members will add to the robot, increasing its
complexity while learing about the necessary skills to build a quality robot.
What is it made of?
This robot is contructed from an empty keg shell and a remote-controlled car. The rigid
body of the keg supports the signs, banners, and other add-ons, while the castors at the
support the robot's weight. The RC car provides the power to move the robot around.
