about
The Robot Dog Control System Software Development project involves creating a custom control system for a robot dog, designed to implement advanced locomotion and sensor integration. Using a Raspberry Pi and Python, the software interfaces with multiple hardware modules via I2C and socket networking. Key components include a PCA9685 16-Channel Servo Driver for controlling servo motors, enabling realistic movement based on precise kinematics.
The project also integrates various sensory inputs, including an IMU for orientation sensing, a passive buzzer for auditory alerts, and a LED strip for providing visual feedback to the user. One of the core features is the development of a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) for a remote client device, which allows users to send commands and receive real-time sensor data. The system is designed to ensure minimal latency (under 10ms), providing smooth and responsive control for the robot dog’s operations.
This system is focused on enabling intuitive, efficient control while showcasing advanced robotics integration, making the robot dog more interactive and easier to operate in various environments.
