DIY Robots: Hubert and Plotter

Hubert: The Biped Robot

Hubert is a modified version of the Zowi biped robot, originally designed by BQ.

Key features of Hubert:

• Brown in color
• Based on the Zowi biped robot design
• Modified from the original BQ version
• Controlled by Arduino

Plotter: The 2D Drawing Robot

Plotter is a small project that functions like a 2D version of a 3D printer.

Key features of Plotter:

• Can draw in 2D when given a pen or pencil
• Built using 3D printed parts
• Controlled by Arduino

Building Process

Both robots were created using a combination of:

• 3D printed parts
• Scrap computer components
• Arduino boards for control

This approach to building robots demonstrates how you can create interesting and functional projects with a mix of new technology (3D printing) and recycled materials.
