TurtlePlotBot

=============

The TurtlePlotBot is a MicroPython based 3D printed drawing robot inspired

by `MakersBox's `_ `Arduino Chassis

for Drawing Robot `_. The

TurtlePlotBot can be easily built in a couple of hours and offers a fun

environment to learn python programming and robotics.

The software that runs the TurtlePlotBot is modular and includes the

`turtleplot` module. The `turtleplot` module contains the methods needed to

turn turtle graphics commands into simple robot movements. You can use the

`turtleplot` module run your own robot using different hardware without

having to write all the python code for each of the turtle graphics commands.

A TurtlePlotBot is built from 3D printed parts, a pair of 28BYJ-48

stepper motors and uses a MG90S mini servo to lift and lower a pen used for

drawing.

An ESP-32 Based Microcontroller module with a 240x135 LCD display

running MicroPython is paired with a `ESP32 DrawBot Board

`_

to provide the interface circuitry needed to run the stepper motors, servo,

MicroSD card and a five way joystick. The TurtlePlotBot has Wifi capability

allowing it to be controlled and programmed wirelessly from a computer,

smartphone or tablet.

A menu system provides an easy way to configure the TurtlePlotBot, connect to

or create a Wifi access point as well as running TurtlePlotBot MicroPython

programs without the use of a computer or another device.
