ElectronBot is a desktop-scale robot platform designed for enthusiasts and makers, combining robotics, embedded systems, display, and gesture sensing into a compact mechanical “tool bot”. The project features six degrees of freedom (rotational axes) for arms, neck, and body, allowing expressive motion beyond simple head-tilt or arm-wave. It includes USB communication and a built-in display, enabling it to respond to host computer inputs and act as an interactive peripheral rather than just a static automaton. The creator provides full source materials—mechanical (3D printed or CNC parts), electronics (PCBs, custom boards), firmware and drivers—so someone can build or modify the robot themselves. The platform also integrates computer vision or gesture sensing (for example, keypoint detection of human pose) so the bot can respond dynamically to a person’s presence or movement.
Features
