At the forefront of technological innovation and the continual evolution of warfare machines, the Militech robot appears to be a plausible solution for the future of modern warfare. Equipped with four formidable tracks enabling all-terrain mobility, this robot is specifically designed to meet crucial strategic needs on the battlefield.

Project Timeline & Contributions

• September 2024 (Project Launch): The project officially started with the design and construction of a tracked military robot chassis, motorization, obstacle detection and avoidance algorithms, and an electromagnetic railgun built with the assistance of a teaching assistant (handled by Nicolas Consalvi), alongside target detection and computer vision systems (handled by Youssef Miri).
• September 2024 – February 2025 (Intermission): Nicolas Consalvi temporarily paused work on the project while studying abroad at Tianjin University, China.
• Year 2 (Erasmus Support): During Nicolas's absence, an Erasmus exchange student joined the team to assist Youssef Miri with the mechanical aspects of the project.
• February 2025 – April 2025 (Project Resumption): Work resumed for a concentrated two-month period, focusing heavily on algorithm robustification—specifically replacing the tracks with wheeled mobility equipped with encoders for precise movement.

Repository Structure

This repository is organized to cleanly separate academic documentation, progress tracking, multimedia demonstrations, and source code:

• Bibliography/: Shared theoretical research, documentation, and literature reviews (provided in both English and French).
• Students' Work/ (and individual contributor folders): Houses personal progress tracking and technical archives, divided into:
  • reports/: Academic documentation and progress logs (written in French to comply with academic evaluation constraints).
  • videos/: Field tests and milestone demonstrations (such as obstacle avoidance, Bluetooth communication, and encoder-based rotations).
  • src/: The core C++ source code developed for the robot.
• Videos/: Global project demonstrations showcasing physical hardware behavior.
