MISSION 01 / A COMPANION FOR THE CURIOUS

Build a companion.
Explore what’s possible.

Kashmir is a printable robot companion in development. Follow the body design, movement previews, and ideas for a platform you can build, code, and make your own. Project releases are coming soon.

WHERE WE ARE

A growing platform, still in development. Full robot commissioning is in progress; outdoor operation and unattended autonomy are future milestones. Downloads will open in a later release.

01 / BASECAMP

Start with one Kashmir.

Preview the build process, from a printed leg to the software that moves it. Designs and step-by-step guides are being prepared for future access.

Kashmir's four leg assemblies and battery base, with the underside attachment grid visible. — The body includes mounting holes and an attachment grid for future additions. Battery blocks in renders show reserved space; retention clips are not yet included.

Choose the build

The current design uses Raspberry Pi 5 mounting patterns and twelve MG996R servos. Hardware fit and final actuator load are part of the commissioning work.

Assembly guide · Coming soon

Print and assemble

The planned print package will include fit checks, left and right legs, body parts, editable STEP files, and 3MF print plates.

03 / FIELD NOTES

Know what makes it move.

Start with mechanics and movement. Then explore how sensing and software can work together. Here is a preview of the learning path.

01Print your first leg

The learning path will start with fit coupons and one root cradle before a complete set of legs. The current design uses two left and two right leg sets, with nine printed pieces per leg.

The planned body package will include P1S-sized print plates and guidance on printer settings, support requirements, and calibrated filament profiles.

Assembly instructions · Coming soon

02Understand the Walking preview

The Walking application has an offline preview for exploring its interface and commanded leg model before connecting motors. It is built with Python and Tkinter.

The planned guide will cover installation, joint calibration, and supervised commissioning. Live camera, fan, and loaded walking behavior still require hardware verification.

Walking software and guide · Coming soon

03Explore a simulated route

The Searching demo explores a marker route through offline simulation. The example follows markers 1 → 2 → 3 without controlling a physical robot.

The planned release will introduce the route interface, camera calibration, and ArUco/ChArUco markers. Physical navigation remains a commissioning milestone.

Searching demo and guide · Coming soon

04Plan a contribution

Start with one useful idea: an attachment, a clearer assembly step, or a behavior. Document editable sources, compatibility, dependencies, creator credit, and what you actually tested.

Community submissions and contribution tools are planned for a later release.

FOR CURIOUS BUILDERS & CLASSROOMS

One platform. Many things to understand.

The goal is to explore geometry through a printed joint, programming through a simulated gait, and sensing through a marker route. Builder guides and teacher-ready lesson packs are planned additions.

04 / NEW FRONTIERS

The first build is a foundation.

Keep the same core and explore new ideas. Clearly documented interfaces and compatible additions are how Kashmir can become an ecosystem.

A / HARDWARE

Print a new possibility.

Experiment with mounts, shells, and attachments. The current body already provides side mounting holes and an underside attachment grid.

Explore hardware →

B / SOFTWARE

Teach it something new.

Planned software releases will introduce the movement planner and offline navigation demo, with clear hardware requirements for new behaviors.

Explore software →

C / NEXT CAPABILITIES

Build toward useful autonomy.

Voice interaction, richer perception, outdoor operation, and monitoring are directions to investigate. They will get their own releases as they are developed and validated.

BUILT TO BE SHARED

What would you make Kashmir do?

A new mount. A better gait. A lesson that makes robotics click. The goal is a place where one builder's work can help the next.
