This is a detailed documentation for the Ez OpenCat project, which appears to be an open-source robotics platform for building autonomous cats. The document covers the hardware components, software requirements, wiring instructions, and control methods. **Hardware Components:** * HuaDuino board * Bluetooth module (HC-05/06 or HM-10/BT05) * HC-SR04 ultrasound sensor (optional) * Dupont wires * M2x6 tapping screws **Software Requirements:** * Arduino sketches for the Ez OpenCat project, available on GitHub * Supporting libraries: + I2Cdev + MPU-6050 + QList + MemoryFree **Wiring Instructions:** The document provides a detailed wiring diagram for connecting the components to the HuaDuino board. **Control Methods:** There are two control methods: 1. Autonomous mode: The cat walks by itself when A0 is connected to 3.3V. 2. Remote control: Command strings can be sent over serial communication (Bluetooth UART or TTL to USB) to perform locomotion. **Command Strings for Locomotion:** The document lists several command strings that can be used to control the cat's movements, including: * "krest" or "d" - stop servos * "kbalance" - standing up * "kwkF" - walking forward * "kwkL" - walking left * "kwkR" - walking right * and others (ksleep, ksit, kpee, kvt) Overall, this documentation provides a comprehensive guide for building and controlling the Ez OpenCat platform.
