Devlog #1 – Started Designing My Robot 🚗🤖
Today I started designing the chassis for my robot. My goal is to build a simple educational robot that uses an ESP32, motors, and sensors to drive around and avoid obstacles.
So far I have:

Created the first version of the robot chassis.

Added four wheels to visualize the overall size.

Designed a removable bottom plate that will hold the electronics.

Planned space inside the chassis for the battery, ESP32, and motor driver.

This is an early prototype, so there are still a lot of improvements to make. Next I’ll be adding:

Motor mounting brackets

ESP32 mounting holes

Battery holder

Ultrasonic sensor mount

Screw holes so the chassis can be assembled

I’m also putting together a complete parts list and budget for the hardware funding request.
Here’s my first CAD model:
(Attach the screenshot you shared.)
Looking forward to improving the design and eventually printing the chassis once the project is funded!
