Description

Rhino is a robot based on AVR ATmega microcontroller.

Here's a list of its features:

  • it runs on AVR ATmega8 microcontroller;
  • it moves around on cool tank tracks;
  • it has 3 different sensors: ultrasonic distance sensor, lightning sensor, 3-axis accelerometer (as a removable module);
  • it has a Bluetooth serial module (removable);
  • it has 4 bright white LEDs to light its way;
  • it has three general-purpose LED indicators (red, green, blue);
  • it can produce an irritating sound;
  • it has a potentiometer (to adjust continuous parameters) and a general-purpose button (to adjust discrete ones);
  • it runs on 4 AA accumulators.

This repository contains PCB and firmware for Rhino. PCB files are prepared with KiCAD.

Questions

How big is the Rhino2 PCB?

It measures 160 × 58 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Rhino2 use?

79 parts, built around the L293NE and 74HC595. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Rhino2 KiCad files?

From the Nu-hin/rhino repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/rhino2.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Rhino2 design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Nu-hin before reusing the design.
