The name of the project, IEEE - TORK, was inspired by the appearance of the designed vehicle. TORK stands for Assault Focused Robot Arms. The vehicle is a great sumo robot. The TORK Team, which started its studies in the fall term of 2018, aims to participate in the contest named "ROBOCON" organized at Yıldız Technical University and get a good rank. Specifically designed for the competition, TORK weighs 22.5 kg. It is a large, heavy, powerful and fast vehicle with remote RF control and a STM32F4 microprocessor coded with Embedded C, aiming to damage the opponent with its rotating pointed arms. There is no class/major limitation for team members and experience is not sought.
The aim of the combat vehicle project in our school is to adapt our friends who continue their education life to the national and domestic technology of our country; to learn the electronic, software and mechanical properties of the rapidly developing robotics sector and to improve the engineering skills, to develop socialization and communication skills. It is also one of the projects our IEEE club has undertaken in order to continue such projects and transfer the learned R&D to the next generation of students. The aim is not only to increase technical knowledge, but also to ensure personal development, networking (engineers and employees working in fields that are related to the project), social activities, to participate in competitions organized at home or abroad, and to produce original projects. Together with our teammates, we produce our own internal and external systems for our combat vehicle project. In this context, we aim to get technical support for the project from the teachers in our school and the network we provide. Our first goal for this project is to win first place in the Robocon competition held at Yıldız Technical University. In line with the successes achieved in the country, we aim to participate in large-scale robot competitions held worldwide. On this journey for these purposes, we continue our studies with our Combat Vehicle team consisting of students studying at our university.
