Build Profile
Sealed body, serviceable electronics, real claw mechanics.
GAR-BOT keeps the Raspberry Pi 5, relay HAT, radio hardware, buck converters, and motor drivers behind covers, glands, and gasketed access panels.
The front hardware uses two matching articulated claws based on the real curved gripper reference, with gear guards, forearm wire covers, and protected controller boards.
Robot Systems
Designed around the parts in the GAR-BOT package.
Control
Raspberry Pi 5 local agent, four IBT-2 drivers, LoRa radio path, and Pico Voice on the 40-pin header.
Motion
Four XD-60GA775-style 24V gear motors with splash shields and protected wiring routes.
Claws
Left and right front claws, each with its own Keyestudio-style controller board and six servo channels.
Physical Reference
Two claws, covered wiring, protected joints.
The claw system follows the photographed servo gripper: curved fingers, gear-linked jaws, parallel links, round shoulder mounts, and protected wrist servo sections.
Remote Transmitter
RP Zero 2 W plus Pico Voice replaces the Pro Mini.
The handheld transmitter uses Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, Pico Voice, and a LoRa transmitter path. The older Pro Mini/nRF board is kept as reference only.
