Welcome to this engineering project focusing on robotics, automation, and system integration.
Your mission is to work as a multi-disciplinary engineering team to design, build, and integrate a fully functional robotic order-preparation system.

This project simulates a real Educational Robotics Lab challenge where several teams must collaborate to create a complete solution involving:

  • A web interface for operators to manage orders

  • A backend server + database to store and process order data

  • A robot controller that executes the picking workflow

  • An RFID identification system to detect objects automatically

By the end of this project, your system should be capable of:

✅ Receiving an order
✅ Identifying items in storage using RFID
✅ Using a robot to collect required objects
✅ Updating the system to mark orders as completed

This is not a “follow-the-steps” exercise, it is an engineering challenge. You will propose designs, justify choices, test, debug, and integrate your work with other teams.
