RoboKit-MV: an Educational Initiative
This work addresses the need for accessible educational tools in humanoid robotics, but it is incremental as it builds on existing competition-winning designs.
The paper introduces RoboKit-MV, a robot model and code base designed for affordable education in humanoid robotics, based on a robot that won competitions from 2019 to 2021, and includes analysis of the robotics education market and design rationale.
In this paper, we present a robot model and code base for affordable education in the field of humanoid robotics. We give an overview of the software and hardware of a robot that won several competitions with the team RoboKit in 2019-2021, provide analysis of the contemporary market of education in robotics, and highlight the reasoning beyond certain design solutions.
