Ezinyangeni zakamuva, ama-hackathons noma "ama-Maker fairs" avame kakhulu, izenzakalo lapho amaphrojekthi amaningi okuthuthukiswa athuthukiswa khona. Hardware Libre. Enye yalezi kanye namaphrojekthi ahlaba umxhwele kakhulu kube irobhothi okuthiwa uDtto.
Uma ihehile, kungenxa yokuthi iDtto uqobo inokusebenza okufana nerobhothi elincane elivela kwi-movie iBig Hero. Le robot i-modular, kunjalo yakhiwa izingxenye eziningana ezimele lokho kungahlanganiswa ukudala irobhothi eliphelele ngokwengeziwe, njengenyoka.
I-Dtto inekesi eliphrintiwe futhi ngaphakathi kuyo linepuleti Arduino UNO, i-transceiver ye-nRF2401, ama-SG92R Tower Pro Servos amabili okucacisa kanye ne-Pro SG90 Micro Tower docking servos. Konke lokhu kuyakuvumela izingxenye ngayinye zingajoyinwa futhi zisebenze njengerobhothi elilodwa yize bengasebenza ngokuzimela.
Iphrojekthi ye-Dtto imahhala futhi singayithola eGithub ikuphi isoftware nolunye ulwazi oludingekayo ekwakhiweni kwayo, futhi singayithola eHackaday, iwebhusayithi lapho ngaphezu kokuba nemininingwane eningiliziwe, futhi inamavidiyo nezithombe ngezindlela ezingenzeka ukuthi i-Dtto.
Irobhothi lonke lakhiwe nge Hardware Libre kodwa iqiniso liwukuthi akuyona ukwakha okwonga imali ngoba ingxenye ngayinye ye-Dtto idinga okungenani ipuleti elilodwa Arduino UNO. Kepha njengoba yonke imiklamo yabo imahhala, singakushintsha ukuklama futhi sikwenze kube ukonga ngokwengeziwe ngezinzuzo ezifanayo noma kubonakala kunjalo. Iqiniso liwukuthi okwamanje ayikho inguqulo yezomnotho ye-Dtto.
I-Dtto iyathakazelisa ngempela ngenxa yokufana kwayo namanye amarobhothi we-modular kepha futhi kuyiqiniso ukuthi kuze kube manje angenza izinto ezimbalwa noma kunalokho, ngeke isetshenziswe ekuphileni kwansuku zonke.
