This week I think my framework is ready to be shown. I finalized the main concepts and base parts, and now I want to show everything including the framework’s main features. The most important parts that define the framework are…

simpleR – a Mechanical Robotic Framework
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…
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…
Manual for Building rEmotion
Just publish a manual for building the rEmotion platform: Try to build your own! Supporting software is in development. Error happened.
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.
rEmotion – a Module with Visual Input and Output
After several months of experiments, I’ve decided to shape a new project called rEmotion. rEmotion is a hardware module with a robotic application in mind. The module represents a head with a display and a camera, allowing a robot to…
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.…
LeOn, a Cat Companion. Architecture First.
With this post, I start my new robotic project. This project will have several important features: What is the project about? It is a cat companion. A simple robot that can move around, avoid big obstacles and move a stick…
Zakhar Brain Service
Yesterday I merged a big software update to the Zakhar’s Raspberry Pi Unit – brain_service. The update brings a service providing the robot’s status (network, OS status) and access to the CAN bus for many simultaneously connected clients. Also, the service…
