WAL-ING

Space debris accumulates as space travel increases. WAL-ING is a simulation of a space debris collector that will remove space debris in the most fuel-efficient way.

Inspiration

Wall-E

What it does

Collect space debris

How we built it

Creating a simulation on a Python application using matplotlib, numpy, and ttkboostrap.

Challenges we ran into

Animation for the robot. Creating an algorithm that would allow the robot to catch the most debris fastest and fuel-efficiently.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Being able to replicate the simulation on matplotlib and creating a UI dedicated to this app.

What we learned

How to animate in matplotlib. Matplotlib 3d graphs. UI design using TTKBOOTSTRAP.

What's next for WAL-ING

fixing bugs, creating an actual prototype, and making the simulation scientifically accurate.
