Robot Dog, Part 11.
In the first seven videos we built a robot dog based on the Boston Dynamics Spot, only smaller.
In part 8, we installed the Bullseye Raspbian OS into the MicroSD card along with Java 11, MRL and WiringPi
Part 9 we downloaded and installed the SpotMicro_MRL program and we started looking at how the program worked.
In Part 10, we looked at the Servo Services and start the servo calibration process.

In this video we start looking at the Kinematic programs.
These programs deal with the location of the robots feet relative the the center of the robot.
In this part we look first at Forward Kinematics, calculating the position of the foot based on the servo positions.

In the Part 12, we will look at Inverse kinematics, calculating the positions we need to set the servos to place a foot in to a specific location.
Don't forget to subscribe to see that when its released.

You can find the github repository for the SpotMicro_MRL program here:

As part of repository, you will also find the documentation I have been building as part of this robot build.
There is also a message posted in the discord whenever I update the program.

Any updates I make to the MRL_SpotMicro program will be included as part of the repository.
