Beeb-Bot

Beeb-Bot is a fully open hardware recreation of the 1983 Economatics BBC Buggy robot. The robot was originally designed as a STEM educational tool to accompany the Acorn BBC Microcomputer that was popular in schools at the time. Beeb-bot is designed for educational and hobby use; the robot can be printed, assembled and used with all stages providing different educational aspects into the design, construction and use of robotics (as well as programming, mathematics and geometry when using the robot).

Full details, printing instructions, construction instructions and the complete OpenSCAD source code are available from the project's GitHub:
