Petoi launches crowdfunding for compact quadruped robot Quaddle

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Petoi has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter for their new palm-sized quadruped robot, Quaddle. This robot distinguishes itself by using only four servo motors in total, with a novel leg design called MiniDoF that allows a single motor to drive both the shoulder and knee joints. The Quaddle is modular, smaller than the company's previous Bittle robot, and comes in three models with varying features, including AI capabilities and infrared sensors. Programming options include block-based environments, Python, Arduino, and ROS 2, with a unique feature allowing users to teach movements by physically guiding the robot. AI

IMPACT This compact, modular robot offers accessible programming options, potentially lowering the barrier to entry for robotics education and hobbyist development.

RANK_REASON This is a crowdfunding campaign for a consumer robot product, not a frontier AI release or significant industry event.
