Before we begin, take a look at the picture of the bot to get a better understanding of the different parts of this emotion detecting pet robot.
1.HARDWARE
Let's make it!
We are going to follow the steps in this tutorial to assemble our emotion detecting pet robot. Look carefully into each of the images and follow the instructions one by one to make this pet robot. The colour of the blocks and parts used in the construction might differ from original, So carefully follow the instruction given below.
1.1 What do we need ?
Given below are the materials required to build the emotion detecting pet robot.
1.2 How is it made ?
Follow the steps carefully to build the Emotion detecting Pet Robot.
1.Take the two motors and attach the 3 pegs as shown below.
2.Place the 15 by 11 block on a flat surface.
3.Connect the motor to this block as shown in the image.
4. Similarly, connect the other motor to this block.
5.Once the setup is ready carefully attach axle 5 to each of the motors. With this we have created an extension to mount our wheels on.
6.Connect wheels to axles on both sides.
7.Take the pin connector and attach it to the opposite side of the motors on the block, as shown below. This will provide support for connecting the castor wheel to the chassis.
8.Now, take the caster wheel and by using the block joiner connect it to the pin connector on the block.
9.Take one beam 15 and attach two friction pegs to first and last holes of the beam.
10.Attach the beam 15 to the underside of the block, this step is a bit tricky so do it carefully and ensure that your structure looks similar to the image below.
11.Take one beam 5 and attach two friction pegs to the first and last holes of the beam.
12. Attach Beam 5 on top of Beam 15, as shown in the figure below. This setup will help us connect Roboki to your bot.
13. Take the 1 by 6 brick with holes, connect two 90-degree pegs to it, and then mount it on Beam 5, as shown in the image. This brick here will act as a mount for connecting the Roboki.
14. Next, connect the Roboki on top of the structure as shown in the image. Use the bricks on the underside of the robot to align with the central beam and fix it in place by applying pressure. During this step, make sure you support the body of the bot from below too, so that the pressure does not break the structure.
