From the project
Raspberry Pi powered robot with camera live stream and 360° lidar.
A little robot powered by a Raspberry Pi 3 A+, featuring a 8MPixel Raspberry Pi Camera V2 and a 360° lidar. A fast WiFi connection allows to remote control the robot while displaying camera real-time full HD video stream. A tailored Buildroot Linux distribution runs the software, controlled through WiFi through an embedded web server.
PCB has been designed using KiCad 5.1.5 and has been ported to KiCad 6. All manufacturing files are available from Release page. A PDF version of the schematic is also provided.
