    Mechanical Principles

                        Motion and Control: Robo Soccer robots need to move efficiently. Engineers use principles of
                         motion to design the robot’s movements. For example, they calculate how fast the robot should
                         move to intercept the ball.

                        Balance and Stability: Robots must stay balanced, especially if they’re designed to kick the ball.
                         Engineers consider the center of gravity to ensure the robot doesn’t tip over while in action.

                        Force and Torque: When kicking the ball, the robot must apply enough force to send it flying
                         towards the goal. Torque, the rotational force around a pivot point (like a leg or wheel), plays a
                         crucial role in how effectively a robot can kick.
                        Feedback Systems: Many Robo Soccer robots use feedback systems to improve their performance.
                         For example, if a robot misses a shot, it can learn from that and adjust its strategy for the next
                         attempt.

                      Wheel: A wheel is a round part that helps things move. When it’s connected to
                      a motor, it spins around, making attached objects roll or turn.

                      Overview

                      Robo Soccer, also known as Robo Cup, is a popular robotics competition
                      where teams of autonomous robots compete against each other in soccer
                      matches. The integration of mechanical modules is crucial in robot soccer
                      for achieving speed, ball control, and shooting abilities.

                      Objective

                        Build a robot that plays football autonomously.
