XOBot
Project of Olin College. Ideas is to create a simple, low cost XO Robot and interface the hardware components with Scratch or some XO friendly graphical programming environment.
Project Components
Hardware Selection
- We're looking to use Vex Servo Motors for drive
- (+) Low cost, about $20 a pop
- (+) Easy to aquire
- (+) Accept PWM and have velocity control, but unlike normal servos are continuous
- Delrin parts for structure
- (+) Delrin is light weight and parts can be assembled without tools
- (+) Many companies will cut and send you Delrin parts at low cost (http://www.ponoko.com/)
- TODO: Determine rest of parts and cost estimate
CAD of the XO
Hard(er) to CAD interfacing parts (the Bot kit itself) without a CAD of the XO.
