Quick update on the most recent version of the cat. We took a look at our previous designs and have started making some improvements.
These include;
- Longer legs and a slightly larger body
- Easier assembly - many of the parts will be the same and reversible so its harder to mess up
- Easier manufacturing down the line. Similar parts allow for easier mass production
- More customization
- Optional encoders for additional feedback
- Improved motherboard with room for 20 servos
- Improved calibration
The current design still needs a revision or two. Currently its very blocky and hastily made so that electronics can be tested. Further revisions will have nicer aesthetics. Additionally we are re-evaluating our choice of hardware so that we can better supply parts. We also need to stress test the system with the larger body size and additional weight
