This independent project involved the design and construction of a bio-inspired quadrupedal robot, developed entirely from concept to working prototype. The robot’s locomotion is based on Jansen linkages, a mechanical system known for creating lifelike walking motions. The project spanned mechanical design, CAD modeling, 3D printing, embedded programming, and gait implementation. The finished prototype demonstrates both walking and dancing gaits, controlled wirelessly via a Raspberry Pi, and serves as a hands-on exploration of robotics, motion planning, and system integration.
