Three years, one full rewrite, and a robot my children actually (sometimes) talk to. What it took to get from one Python script and a face made of DALL·E sprites to ROS 2, a Hailo accelerator, and a face drawn with signed distance fields.
I have created basic library for interfacing nRF2401 with AVR thru BASCOM-AVR. It was tested on ModuBra!nz controller platform and is working quite reliably. The code is somewhat commented but I will try to improve it. There are basic funct
Printing this single wheel took 90 minutes — but the wheel has every detail in place, and cutting them by hand would take much longer :)
My latest and probably most ambitious project so far. A walking robot isn't anything unusual — there are plenty of them — but they all share one issue: power efficiency.
Our wall-e is still pretty dumb, but the future looks interesting. It's the first tracked robot I've built — wheels are decidedly more my thing ;)
Another tiny build, putting some wonderful miniature motors to good use.
My longest-running project. Dominant is a hefty robot, more than 10kg, fitted with a manipulator that can lift over 1kg.
The long road that led to CuBot started here. The thesis project was supposed to be simple and pleasant. It very much wasn't.
My engineering thesis robot. The goal: build a robot that looks like the ones from specialist robotics companies, but at around 100€.
After tankPaq, miniPionier's turn. This one was already laid out as a triangle: two independent driven wheels for steering and rotation, plus a third for balance.
Sentinel grew out of miniPionier, plus the urge to build something for the school robotics lab with a mobile camera. After Pathfinder this felt like the natural next step.
Most of the robots here are mobile platforms — they're missing what you see in films and ads, where a robot can actually interact with the environment instead of just pushing things around.
Pathfinder — a robot modelled on the Mars rover, with a holonomic drive. Four-wheel drive, 6V geared motors. The red one is also where I'm testing an encoder.
