Jetbot Mini

This is the Jetbot Mini project, a smaller iteration of the Jetbot! Some key features are as follows:

  • Onboard motor controller and battery charger to reduce costs and wire clutter
  • Custom baseboard for the Jetson Nano module
  • A smaller chassis that can achieve two way traffic (i.e., two robots running on the road at the same time) on the LEGO roads used to test the original Jetbot
  • Designed with KiCAD and Onshape for easy maker access

This project aims to be an accessible example project that uses the Jetson Nano platform and a custom baseboard, so any feedback about the design is welcome.

Please note that the A00 Baseboard design is not recommended for manufacture, as it requires a rework to work properly and some features have not been fully validated. The A01 Baseboard is currently in development that aims to fix issues found with A00.
