DotBot

thingiverse

DotBot is an educational robot where students can create robots with Arduino and a wide range of Raspberry Pi models, including the low-cost PiZero. This robotic platform allows students to learn robot programming and modify the chassis easily by creating new custom parts. Since it's an open-source platform, the robot can be freely modified, copied, and shared online without any restrictions. The cost is extremely low, with the majority of the expense coming from DC Motors, electronics, and sensors. The design is also versatile, allowing for easy attachment of components such as servos, DC Motors, LEDs, push buttons, buzzer, and other sensors. Created by two professors, Michele Maffucci from IIS Galilei Ferrari in Torino, Italy, and Ludovico Russo, a researcher at Politecnico di Torino in Italy. Hardware includes: 2 x chassis 1 x battery holder 2 x Ball Caster (remixed: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1367222) 1 x breadboard holder 13 X joints 25 mm x 3mm 30 x screw M3x10 (or M3x5) 4 x screw M3x30 10 x nut M3 2 x glass marbles di vetro (diameter 16 mm) The robot assembly is straightforward.
