K3lso Quadruped

ROS Projects

I rarely share photos of myself. But here I am and my quadruped project [K3lso]. We’re getting closer, no one is more excited than me!

Thanks
@UPbridge_gap & @Cubemars for the support,
@NVIDIAEmbedded for the cool shirt!

I hope you publish details on this. There are so many parts of the design I am interested in knowing more about. Just, for example, the duel depth camera with a converging field of view. Why is it helpful to have them pointed inward? I hope someday to read the code that handles this. Of course the motors and gear reduction systems. I’d like to one day study the CAD files. Your wheeled support system is a great idea too.

I will eventually post more details on www.k3lso.com (temp just a landing site). For the camera setup,
I guess this video shared in the previous post might help you with some insights of the camera setup :wink:

Thanks!

Wife complained about my workplace took up too much space. So I came up with this solution. Happy how it turned out :upside_down_face:

Very nice work!! Do you control the cubemars motors under ROS? if yes, can you share the code, please?
