Abstract
Modern technology is rapidly developing due to rapid increase of human needs. Several
research both at universities and industry is carried out to achieve development of robot’s
design and applications for the purpose of bridging the gaps between local economy,
social needs, and logistics focusing on sustainable development and solutions to industrial
problems concerning material handling.
Mechatronics Engineering use technology and techniques to provide solutions for the
society. This project aims to provide solution concerning material handling in different
industrial sectors. Forklift Mobile Robot could provide a suitable solution to the presented
logistic problem.
The Forklift Mobile Robot will act as a storage manager. It should be able to sort products
within a predefined store layout, and pick out the required when it is needed. Where the
special engineering project is based on the development of an automated platform to
transport goods inside a warehouse defined by several coordinates in advance, and there
are two main coordinate points, which are the home point and the target point, this report
demonstrate the development of the Sensing and Control system to allow the robot to
move around its environment, using Ultrasonic Sensors to detect obstacles and using an
encoder to manage the distance and speed of the robot. In addition, this robot will be able
to choose the shortest path from the home point to the target point.
This graduation project satisfies the requirements of Mechatronics Engineering. In this
project, a prototype Forklift Mobile Robot will be designed, simulated, and constructed.
