Hardware source and production files to recreate Kabot robot in physical world

Kabot is an open-source, compact educational mobile robot. This repository contains its mechanical, electronic, and hardware production files.

The hardware was designed entirely with free and open-source software (FOSS):

- FreeCAD 1.1.1 for the mechanical design - KiCad 10.0.4 for the electronic design

Using these versions is recommended for the best compatibility with the source files.
