Object-following robot

Explore a small robot that responds to an object in a controlled scene.

Not yet assessed Not built by CAIBI

A source to explore and a proposed direction to develop. This is not a full build assessment.

Make it useful to you

Explore a small robot that responds to an object in a controlled scene.

CAIBI’s proposed addition: Identify where vision actually runs, then test detection before enabling slow motor movement.

Start with the original

Source lead

Found in the supplied source. Original files, compatibility and completeness still need checking.

Prompts to move it forward

Copy a prompt into your AI tool with the source material and your actual parts. Work through one small step at a time and check the output before using it. Choose an AI tool or practise the skills first.

Plan the next step

I want to develop this idea: Object-following robot. Intended outcome: Explore a small robot that responds to an object in a controlled scene. The source is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4C2c0xs6eFg. CAIBI suggests: Identify where vision actually runs, then test detection before enabling slow motor movement. First inspect the source I supply. Separate what it already does from proposed additions. Ask for my actual board, parts, skill level and missing files. Produce a small staged plan with one bench test per stage. Do not invent pin assignments, dimensions or completed test results.

Design a measured enclosure

Help me design a practical enclosure for Object-following robot. First ask for measured component dimensions, mounting holes, connectors, cable clearance, ventilation and operating conditions. Suggest a printable or off-the-shelf approach. Begin with a fit-test piece before a complete case. Label assumptions and do not invent an enclosure rating.

Check and document the result

Create a test log for Object-following robot. Intended outcome: Explore a small robot that responds to an object in a controlled scene. Separate expected behaviour from observed results. Include power restart, disconnected inputs, communication failure and the actual physical use. Ask me to provide results, firmware versions, changes, photos and unresolved problems. Never mark a test passed without my evidence.
