College of Engineering, Technology and Computer Science at IPFW and alocal company initiated a 5-year project to promote robotics, artificial intelligence, and softwareengineering in the college curricula. The main goal of this project is to build a robot team tocompete in the Robocup Middle Size League competition2 by 2012. This project also aims atintroducing robotics into a variety of computer science and engineering courses. As part of thefirst year plan, a Pioneer 3-DX robot was purchased. Using this robot as a development platform,the first task was to design and build a kicking mechanism that is seamlessly connected andinterfaced with this robot. This task was carefully reviewed by the professors whose expertise arein Robotics and machine
