This post describes different 2D designs made with the DYOR, bPED and qPED robot and all its variants so far that can be used for the manufacture of parts by laser cutting with 3mm thickness.
The DYOR robot, together with all its variants, as well as the bPED and qPED robots can be manufactured using a laser cutter with parts with 3mm thick. This post aims to describe different 2D models and designs that can be used for non-commercial purposes.
First of all, we recommend that you download the file with all the models available to date:
After unzipping the file you will see that it includes 3 folders, one for the DYOR robot, another for the bPED robot and finally a third folder for the qPED robot.
DYOR ROBOT DESIGNS
In the DYOR folder, you will find a multitude of designs ready to be used. You will find some designs with different versions, these are modifications that have historically been made, with some variations within the same design concept. Keep in mind that some designs may have inadvertent “bugs”, so it is convenient that you review the designs prior to manufacturing.
This folder includes the classic DYOR robot designs, and its popular variants such as BatBot, ImperialBot, SpiderBot, SteveBot, WonderBot, PikaBot, GokuBot, GingerBot, Minion, Football and Panda. Also, there are included are designs of some more unknown variants such as Mercury, Greta or Pablo or a “Pro” version with many more sensors. Keep in mind that the most popular variants have been tested and you are unlikely to find a bug about them, while the other variants have not been tested and are basically proposed.
bPED ROBOT DESIGN
The bPED robot is a simple robot to program and assemble, but with a great set of movements and possibilities. Thanks to its large feet, it is a very stable robot when performing the movements of its legs and can be used to perform choreography, dance and object detection, generate expressions, etc … It has several variants, depending on the type of electronics used for its mouth and the way its legs are made (variants that do not include legs in the design is because they use 1mm aluminum pieces instead).
qPED ROBOT DESIGN
The qPED robot is a classic. It was designed at the same time as the bPED robot, but its design has not been used as much because it requires 8 motors, and we could not find a set of electronics that can be used to power all motors without requiring LiPo batteries, rechargers, voltage adapters, etc…. Anyway, it is an interesting and very fun robot design that you can learn a lot with it.
