About this print
Otto is an open source bipedal robot designed for education and DIY assembly. It walks, dances, makes sounds and can avoid obstacles using an ultrasonic sensor. The design is Arduino-compatible and intended to be built without soldering, making it accessible to beginners and school-age makers. Parametric customisation allows the size to be adjusted before printing. PLA is the standard material for Otto's body parts, offering straightforward printing and sufficient rigidity for the servo-driven joints.
