Cyber Hound: The New Remote Controlled Spot

thingiverse

I designed this robot dog to have a sleek look and quick build. It is pretty small and uses 12 mG90s servos to move around. You have to buy a couple items for this. It totaled around $90 for me to buy all the electronics and motors (not including the printing price). The dog and remote each have an RF Nano (An Arduino Nano with an integrated Nrf24Lo1 transceiver module). You could buy those two parts separately if you like, But the dog circuit box is designed for the RF Nano module only. There will be two of them, one in the remote and one in the dog, and they will communicate with each other, allowing the servos to move when the joystick is moved forward. The dog has a 1. RF Nano (the brain) 2. MPU-6500 Gyro sensor (for balance control) 3. MG90S servos x12 4. PCA9685 16-Channel Servo Driver (to control all servos) 5. Bearing for limbs: (Mr73zz 3x7x2.5mm - x4) & (MR105ZZ 5x10x4mm - x8) 6. 9v 16800mAH Lithium Battery Pack 7. Self locking light up 16mm pushbutton (for ON/OFF) The remote uses a: 1. RF Nano (communication) 2. Sliding potentiometer 3. Ps2 Dual-Axis Joystick Module x2 4. Momentary pushbutton x4 5. 9v 16800mAH Lithium Battery Pack 6. Self locking light up 16mm pushbutton (for ON/OFF) I uploaded 3 files for the quadruped dog model. The circuit box, the hound dog, and the the hound foot. The body and the foot models are the right side of the body. Print one of this body model and another model that is mirrored to the left. You also need to print 2 of this right foot model and another 2 of the left mirrored model.
