This week we went to the school of electrical and electronic to test our robot. We faced problems with our caster wheels. As the office environment is carpeted, the swivel caster wheel we used will sink in to the carpet, thus the robot requires a greater amount of effort to turn and move around. This caused the robot to fail to turn in the office. We tried different solution to solve this problem such as using a smaller caster wheel, this didn't works as it still sink into the carpet. At last we decided to use a ball caster wheel, this allow the robot to move along the carpet smoothly without any problems.
