Vigibot is a platform that enables remote control of Raspberry Pi-based robots over the Internet, with live video streaming and real-time interaction.
This repository contains the CAD files, PCB files, and documentation required to build the reference robot platform used within the Vigibot ecosystem.
The Minus 2S is the latest generation of our 4WD robot platform, featuring a gripper and a pan-tilt camera head. It has been redesigned around custom PCBs to simplify assembly, improve reliability, and provide a cleaner overall build.
Compared to the previous version, the Minus 2S uses a 2-cell (2S) Li-ion/LiPo battery architecture and the new Vigi UPS V3 power management board.
Key advantages of the 2S architecture include:
-
Higher available power for motors and peripherals
-
Lower current for the same power output, reducing voltage drops and cable losses
-
Improved stability during motor acceleration and under heavy load
-
Better support for power-demanding accessories such as LiDARs, USB devices, and 4G modems
-
Increased efficiency of the overall power system
The integration of the Vigi UPS V3 further enhances the platform by providing robust power management for the Raspberry Pi and onboard electronics, improving overall system stability and reliability.
The Minus 1S is the previous generation of the robot platform and is now considered legacy hardware.
It uses a single-cell (1S) battery architecture and an earlier power management design. While still functional, it offers lower available power and more limited expansion capabilities compared to the Minus 2S platform.
Each repository includes the resources required to build the corresponding robot platform:
-
CAD files for 3D-printed parts
-
PCB design files
-
Assembly documentation
-
Hardware resources related to the robot platform
-
This project is actively evolving.
-
Additional documentation, assembly guides, and build instructions will be added over time.
