Meet Rapiro: the -powered robot friend you build yourself, 3D-printed for maximum cuteness and looking for backing on Kickstarter. Meet Rapiro: the Raspberry Pi -powered robot friend you build ...

The robot is controlled by an onboard Raspberry Pi, which utilizes Adafruit’s PWM Pi Hat to control all of the outputs. Coding was done in Python, the robot was drawn in AutoCAD 2014.

Now details have been released allowing you to 3D print your very own Rapiro robot to make your own. The Rapiro board is Arduino compatible enabling you to program it using the Arduino IDE.

Shota Ishiwatari has just launched RAPIRO, his custom designed Raspberry Pi Robot. The robot is easy to assemble, and comes with RGB LEDs, 12 servos, and an Arduino-compatible servo control board.

It’s a 3D printed robot and controller that’s the closest you can get to, ‘the Lego of robots’. All you need to do is plug some wheels into a controller and you’re off to the races.

Switch on the 3D printer and browse to the IP address of the Raspberry Pi to access the Mainsail front-end we had chosen for Klipper. Browse to the "Machine" menu on the left-hand side panel and ...

The Raspberry Pi then uses an SPI interface to talk to an ARM microcontroller and that drives the servos. The arm (the robot arm, not the processor) itself is well done, made from Lego Technic ...

The Pi-Top, which will be making its way to Kickstarter in the near future, features a 13.3-inch display with a resolution of 1366 x 768, WiFi, laptop keyboard including a trackpad, and a battery ...
