It’s been a while since the last post… mostly because my new job is taking away most of my time…

But also because I had to fix several issues in Anima before mounting the legs and the upper body. First I had to fix the sound problem, curiously the IR sensor was generating noise which was propagated up to the audio amplifier, thus generating audible noise… To fix it I added to capacitors (100nF & 10µF) on the sensor’s power connection. Then I burned the Li-ion charger 😦 so I had to replace some mosfet and add some heatsinks.

Finally after 20 months of design, tests, doubts, bug fix, etc… Animabot is assembled and ready to walk !!!

Stay tuned 😉
