DIY SelfieBot project
First fully 3D printed DIY Mobile driven
robot for consumers
Getting started guidance
Advancing a new robotics trend
Intro
Endurance opens the gate to the world of robots.
You do not have to be Edison to make your own robot.
In April 2016 Endurance launched a DIY SelfieBot program that allows anyone to make one’s own robot for free.
Our missionEndurance is getting together smart people: enthusiasts, hobbyists and students. We are building a friendly open-minded community where people ask questions, share their knowledge and experience , help each other assemble and upgrade robots based on the DIY SelfieBot.
Our mission is: ‘To educate and encourage students and others by creating a friendly robotics network and to empower them by providing the skills necessary to create and develop their own robots that will help people in the field of Education’
Official web program web page: EnduranceRobots.com/diy-selfibot/
What do you need to make a SelfieBot?
3D printer. Basic knowledge in electric engineering. Know how to use a soldering iron. Be patient enough to read and watch our
tutorials and follow our guidance. Approx. 50 USD to buy the electronic parts
and filament.
5 US colleges are already in the program More than 40 articles tell about us
What we give
We share our detailed tutorials and video instructions to help you print the SelfieBot parts on a 3D printer. Our videos and pictures show how to assemble a DIY SelfieBot. We share videos and pictures showing how to assemble the electronics on a breadboard. We open codes for Arduino and Android app to run a SelfieBot. We offer help and support.
We do not ship parts or filament for a SelfieBot (just cannot afford it since we are an early self-funded startup… )
