Bipedal Companion Robot (Open Source, 3D Printable)

# Open Source, 3D Printable, Modular Bipedal Robot Project

The **Modular Bipedal Robot** project aims to educate and inspire individuals interested in robotics and electronics. This open-source initiative focuses on creating a fully autonomous companion robot with a variety of advanced features.

## Key Features

- **Bipedal Design**: The robot includes articulated legs for bipedal movement.
- **Control Systems**: Utilizes Arduino and Raspberry Pi, managed through custom PCBs.
- **Modular Body**: Configurable body components allow for easy customization and adaptability.
- **Software Modules**:
- Animation: Handles the animation of the robot, including walking, turning, and other movements.
- Braillespeak: Converts text to Braille and speaks it using a proprietary audio output using the onboard buzzer.
- Buzzer: Controls the buzzer for audio output. Includes the ability to play tones and melodies.
- ChatGPT: Uses the OpenAI GPT models to process text based on user input.
- Logging: Logs data to a file for debugging and analysis.
- Motion Detection: Handles motion detection using an onboard microwave motion sensor.
- Neopixel: Controls the onboard Neopixel LEDs for visual feedback.
- PiServo: Controls the servos connected to the Raspberry Pi.
- PiTemperature: Reads the temperature from the integrated temperature sensor on the Raspberry Pi.
- RTLSDR: Uses an RTL-SDR dongle to receive and process radio signals.
- Serial Connection:…
