Otto DIY — Bipedal Walker Robot
Otto is one of the most beloved open-source DIY robots: a small bipedal walker that anyone can build with a 3D printer, an Arduino Nano, and four micro servos. Originally created by the Otto DIY community, Otto can walk, turn, dance, sing, and emote with optional ultrasonic, sound, and LED matrix add-ons.
This Program is a learning interface for the Otto DIY platform. Full hardware control runs on the Arduino firmware in the source repo below. The orobot.io control sandbox lets you experiment with the command surface before wiring it into your own Otto.

Hardware integration status
Otto runs on Arduino Nano with the OttoDIYLib firmware. orobot-firmware does not yet have Arduino Nano support — this Program provides the learning interface and command surface. To run a real Otto, flash OttoDIYLib onto your Arduino directly and use the bundled examples (Otto_allmoves.ino, Otto_APP.ino).
Capabilities
Walk, turn, jump, moonwalk dance, ~10 named gestures (Happy, Sad, Angry, Love, Confused, Wave, Magic, Fail, Sleeping…), and 19 built-in songs. Full API in the OttoDIYLib examples.
Credits
Massive thanks to @JavierIH, @Obijuan, @sfranzyshen, and the dozens of contributors who have built and maintained Otto DIY for nearly a decade. Otto is one of the projects that proved tiny, friendly, accessible robots could be a global open-hardware movement.
