Hello all,
I didn’t advanced much on the Solidworks Design because I need the size and shape of the PCBs I have to integrate…
Animabot will be composed of 5 PCBs in addition to the Raspberry Pi and the STM32 :
- Power Supply Board
- Li-Ion Charger
- STM32 Board Adapter
- Raspberry Pi Board Adapter
- LED
I’m using Altium Designer for the Electronic design, I know that it is a complicated software for the boards I have to do, but I am used to it (I used it previously with my first Hexapod and at my school). For the moment I’m spending a lot of time creating the components and footprints I have… so not very funny…
However, I will create the 4 others PCBs in the next few days to be able to put them into Animabot.

I also put an Infrared sensor on the front of the robot, so he will be able to avoid falling in the stairways or from a table 😉
