## Overview
This repository contains the source code for a Spot Micro quadruped robot.
Execution of the software takes place on a ESP32 cam, which runs various number of FreeRTos task for seamless robotic operations.
By focusing on practicality and simplicity in both hardware and software, it offer an accessible platform for learning, experimentation, and modest real-world applications.
### Documentation
You can find the current steps to get a fresh new doggo up and barking on [/docs](docs/readme.md)
1. [Components](docs/1_components.md)
1. [Assembly](docs/2_assembly.md)
1. [Software](docs/3_software.md)
1. [Turning on for the first time](docs/4_configuring.md)

#### Software
You can find a description for the current esp32 firmware and controller [here](https://github.com/runeharlyk/SpotMicroESP32-Leika/new/master/docs/software_description.md).
## Kinematics
The kinematic for the robot is from this [kinematics paper](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/320307716_Inverse_Kinematic_Analysis_Of_A_Quadruped_Robot). A C++ and TypeScript library was written to enable onboard calculation and fast development iteration using the robot mirroring.
## Getting started
1. Clone and open the new project
```sh
git clone https://github.com/runeharlyk/SpotMicroESP32-Leika
```
1. Install dependencies with preferable package manager (npm, pnpm, yarn)
```sh
cd app
pnpm install
```
1. Configure device settings
1. Update `factory_settings.ini` with relevant settings
1. Upload filesystem image using platformIO
1. Upload firmware using platformIO
