Sprocket: The Open-Source 3D-Printable Robotic Dog

The Robotic Dog

Sprocket is an open-source, AI driven robotic dog made from consumer off-the-shelf components and 3D printed parts. Sprocket can be built by anyone with basic hobbyist mechanical and electrical skills and can be programmed to do anything with its simple, easy to understand, expansable codebase.

Cost

All components can be easily individually obtained online or in stores, or they will be made available soon as kits on our website.

  • 3D printed parts can all be printed with only a few spools of PLA, ABS, or PETG filament.
  • Hardware: Various hardware pieces including nuts and bolts, bearings, etc., can be aquired for approximately $100.
  • Servos: A1-16 Smart Servos are available for $44.95 online. The robotic dog uses twelve for a total of $540.
  • Electronics: The robotic dog is powered by a Raspberry Pi microcomputer, which are typically available for $35, and a custom PCB, which can be built for approximately $50.

Total cost to construct your own Sprocket: Approx. $800
