RC reconnaissance robot

Project context

For the Dutch police, I developed an RC reconnaissance robot based on an existing platform. The goal was to create a modular and robust system for remote-controlled exploration, with advanced features to support real-time reconnaissance.

Approach

Using the IPO design process, I created a design with modularity, cooling solutions, and advanced operator control. The system was optimized for adaptability and efficient component layout.
Due to confidentiality agreements, specific technical configurations, electronic systems, and operational features cannot be shared.

Tools & Techniques

• IPO design process

• CAD modeling for housing and ducts

• Modular system architecture

• Electronics integration & thermal management

• Active cooling

Outcome

Reflection

The result was a functional reconnaissance platform with modular adaptability and efficient internal organization.

This project taught me how to design and integrate complex mechatronic systems, combining mechanical design, electronics, and thermal management. It strengthened my ability to create modular, scalable designs that balance innovation with reliability in demanding real-world applications.
