Desk Bot

A tiny desk companion that reacts when you walk by (still in the idea cloud)

3D printing · Servos · ESP32

Straight from the idea cloud — a palm-sized robot buddy that lives on the desk, wiggles when you walk past, and maybe (maybe) delivers pencils.

The sketch so far

  • Two servo “arms” and a tilting head
  • Ultrasonic sensor so it knows when someone’s near
  • Same LED-face DNA as the Pixel Radio — they should look like family
  • Personality settings: chill, hyper, and “do not disturb”

Got ideas for what Desk Bot should do? Drop them in the comments on any video — the best ideas are getting built into v1.
