Tobi-P, the rabbit robot

Here some pictures of the early prototypes:

I guess I will have used pretty much all possible materials at the end!

The custom case has also gone through many iterations in Blender. Besides maybe the dimensions, the overall shape was settled quite early, but the face and accessories took a lot longer.

Here some of the past ideas:

... and are now freely available from the Thingiverse project page.

This was the very first version of Tobi-P.

Here the open-loop teleoperation is demonstrated, showing that the main software-hardware chain is working, from the workstation keyboard to the target motors. It was an important milestone to validate the framework (ROS), as well as the choice of the core components.

We can already see that the mechanical base will need some serious rework, and that soldering is not one of my forte.
