Advancement of technology and human needs has contributed to the convergence of multiple engineering disciplines. Mechatronics engineering is an applied discipline that focuses on the design and study of complete engineering systems including mechanical, electrical, electronic, and control systems. This paper is concentrated on design a mechatronic system (robot arms) to transfer Ping-Pong balls. The aim of this paper is to explain the design process of producing a robot that will compete in a competition. The robot will be operated either wired or wireless within its designated area in performing the ball collection during a two-round match. Duration of 10 minutes is going to be allocated for every round. Top two teams that collect most balls between the 2 rounds will proceed to subsequent round (if quite 4 teams are competing). The performance evaluations will be in terms of number of Ping-Pong balls successfully placed inside the collection buckets.
