ChessBot---Zero

🤖♟️ ChessBot---Zero — An Autonomous AI Chess Robot What if you could play chess against a world-class AI on a real physical chessboard? Welcome to ChessBot---Zero, an ambitious robotics project that combines 3D printing, mechanical engineering, custom electronics, embedded programming, and artificial intelligence into a fully autonomous chess-playing robot. Every move is calculated by Stockfish, one of the strongest chess engines ever created, capable of reaching 3000+ Elo at maximum strength—far beyond human world champion level. The robot doesn't simply move pieces; it analyzes the position of the opponent and independently chooses the best move possible. 🎥 Watch the Robot in Action Want to see ChessBot---Zero in action?

A design intended to ensure the most precise and cost-effective assembly possible. Optimized for precision, rigidity, and reliability. Every chess piece contains a hidden screw, allowing the end effector's electromagnet to pick it up securely. 🔌 Custom Electronics Every PCB was designed in Fusion 360 Electronics. Purpose-built electronics optimized specifically for this robot. ⚙️ Embedded Hardware RP2040-Zero controls all motors and sensors with high-speed real-time firmware. Raspberry
