I've been viewing Jaidyn Edwards (ChickenParmi) robot 'PopPet and it has inspired me to create Berty. Berty will be powered by 2 Li-Po batteries and 2 constant rotation servos for drive. I am deciding to buy another uno or nano as my other robot Herman is permanently keeping my original uno. I will add some other capabilities such as line following and voice control later on down the line. Happy robot making LMR!
=UPDATE=
New face plate as the old one was snapped. Also added a block on the back as a caster.

Looks an awful lot like my robot. Both had similar inspiration.
You should know I backed jayden edwards off kickstarter and I am still waiting for it in the mail. Here is my robot both have similar concepts.
They’re both box-like?

Dave,
If you’re going to be buying multiple Arduiono, you might look into eBay for the clones. They seem to work the same, and the clones are much more affordable.
I also like the small format Arduinos for robots; I use my UNO for breadboard testing where space doesn’t matter.
When you’re ready for voice control, you might look at the small Linux boards such as the Raspberry Pi.
Yeah I know like the popet.

Good plans
I do buy cheap clones as I am limited on money. I also have a raspberry pi which i can use eventually aswell.
I Love It!
The steampunk design really suits robots and gives it that 60’s feel. Looks awesome!
