This project is one of many that have been initiated at the University because of the innovation that has led printers Thing-O-Matic, by Department of Systems Engineering and Automation, in the field of robotics. Also it has the objective to test the viability of low cost printable robotics.

The objective is to design a vehicle using as main tool the department’s 3D printers. To this end, agreed to a free-school course taught at the University Carlos III of Madrid where instructing you the tools, both software and hardware, which is needed to make proper use of printers, design and control robots.

This caused a large number of projects related to printable robots. The novelty of this proyect with respect to others is the use of motors DC, as so far all printable robots used servos for both, its movement and its displacement. Moreover, most of them for the actions mentioned and making use of the power units have used
