R2D2 Arduino Core

thingiverse

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSDkyJnjuno I built this design for my sister, using the Pololu Round Robot Chassis Kit as a guide. I created multiple versions of stl files, some featuring holes for sensors to suit your specific needs. To ensure safety, I ordered an ultrasonic sensor to prevent impacts and a Bluetooth module to control R2D2 with my smartphone, selecting apps online that can be used for this purpose. The head has a hole for the LED light. The base features a hole for an on/off switch. I also ordered a servo to move the head, which needs testing, but may not provide sufficient movement as anticipated. To make it talk, I plan to use a module and a speaker. Many of these modules are currently en route to my house, so updates will be posted accordingly. If you have any suggestions or questions, feel free to share them with me. P.S. I used adhesive paper to complete the details on R2D2, including adding stencils for more defined features.
