Robotics & Design

The Robotics & Design department is where GENBOT's machines get their bodies. Members take a robot from concept through CAD, chassis design, drivetrain and electronics to a finished platform that responds to the real world.

What the department works on

• CAD modelling of chassis, mounts and assemblies.
• Drivetrain selection, gearing and wheel configuration.
• Mechanical design for impact — combat bots, rovers and humanoids.
• Electronics integration with the embedded systems team.

Skills you build

CAD, mechanical analysis, material choices, drivetrain tuning and design-for-assembly — the fundamentals behind almost every robotics project for engineering students.

Projects under this department

• NexBot — the flagship AI humanoid's modular mechanical architecture.
• PathFinder — the autonomous rover's chassis and drivetrain.
• Smart Arena Bot — hardened combat chassis and tuned drivetrain.
