JBR-001: open-source 3D-printable desktop companion robot
Arduino UNO Q-powered desktop robot with camera and on-device computer vision trained on synthetic data, distance sensing, servos, and animated display - full STLs, code, and build instructions open.
Why it matters
Complete edge-AI companion robot kit with synthetic-data-trained vision on a real Arduino board - robotics plus synthetic data in one reproducible physical-AI platform; Show HN today.
What you could build with it
A robotics educator could run a semester course where students 3D-print and program JBR-001 units, teaching edge-AI vision with synthetic-data training on commodity Arduino hardware.
Does it hold up?
Too early to judge - Show HN today with 8 stars; no independent builds reported yet.
