3D Printable Rover Architecture
The main idea of this article is to explain the basic concepts about the 3D Printable Rover architecture.
If you have a 3D printer and are planning to build a rover, robot car, radio controlled tank, or as you would prefer to call it, you are in the right place.

Aum2 – “Raspberry Pi Zero W” based robot
As soon as I got my Raspberry Pi Zero W, I started thinking how to test it. I chose to use it as brain of one of those standard robot bases available online.
I bought an Arduino Smart Car kit in Aliexpress, there is a lot of information online about this chassis, and it’s not expensive at all. Read more “Aum2 – “Raspberry Pi Zero W” based robot”

Joystick to Differential Drive (Python)
As I’m now working on a Raspberry Pi Zero W based robot, doing my first test on Python programming, I needed to port the function created previously in this article for Arduino (c++).
This time though, I changed its name, and added the capability to provide the limits for the input and the output on any range you need it. I’ll explain why Read more “Joystick to Differential Drive (Python)”

Joystick to Differential Drive (Arduino)
When you are building robots, one of the most common chassis you find are the ones that use Differential Drive. This means they have a motor per wheel, might be threaded, two wheels and a caster, 4 wheels, etc. Read more “Joystick to Differential Drive (Arduino)”
