I have a passion for building robots and want to create more of them. But a robot without a frame is just a heap of electronics. For each robot, I need a skeleton to hold the electronics and bring them to life. I need a mechanical framework that fits my needs, but online solutions are either too rigid or overly complicated. That’s why I started my simpleR Framework—a simpler, more adaptable solution for robotics enthusiasts like me! The first attempt looked like a centaur 🙂 The square shape looks better The small prototyping with my existing robot showed that the shape should be square-like And now it looks like this: My plan is to move all…

rEmotion 2 Control Library
Good news! rEmotion 2 is now shipped with the Linux library that can be used to interact with the module from your Raspberry Pi or any other Linux device! The update is available in the repository: Look at the example…
microlog 6: New feature – Log Topics
Hi! I continue developing my logging library. I’m not getting much positive response from the internet, but the developing itself is too fun, so I continue adding new features (and use them in my other projects 🙂) This time I…
rEmotion 2 Firmware Update
Today, I made a port of my old rEmotion 1 Arduino Nano-based firmware to rEmotion 2’s Pico. I used the second core for the stepper motor. You can build it yourself using PlatformIO. The code is crappy, probably has to…
rEmotion 2 – For Everybody
I started the second iteration of my robotic module rEmotion. This time it will be more public and accessible. I’m making it for everybody: More updates and instructions soon! Error happened.
Fast Prototyping of Mechatronics
I finally tried Raspberry Pi Pico, and I was shocked. Writing hardware logic in Python is the simplest prototyping method, period. Now, details. To test the MicroPython I came up with a project I saw implemented on Arduino – a…
microlog – I Made another Logging Library in C but with Emojis
I have a lot of small projects, over 100 repos on GitHub. Most of them are simple prototypes, and after some time I started to think about some unification, so I spend less time on typical tasks. These tasks include…
LeOn – a Toy for Cats
Here I’m sharing my results with a project I started last summer. I finished it in the winter but forgot to share the results, so here they are. The project turned out quite simple, but I think it’s pretty solid.…
abcmake – CMake Module for Fast Development
I have a lot of side projects, most of which are written in C and C++. They are small and fun… at least until they are not. As development progresses, it is getting more and more difficult to manage all…
