Mimo is a small interactive desktop robot designed to be a fun, customizable, and smart companion. It is powered by an ESP32-S3 and features an OLED display for animations and expressions, touch input for interaction, physical buttons, and a speaker with an amplifier for sounds and feedback. The robot is powered by a rechargeable battery, making it portable and suitable for use anywhere on a desk.

The project combines electronics, PCB design, embedded programming, and 3D design into one compact device. Mimo is designed to have a friendly personality through animations, sounds, and user interactions, with the possibility of adding more features and behaviors in the future. The goal is to create a unique little desktop companion that is not only functional but also fun to build, customize, and use.

Hello!

Great work! However, we can only approve the cost of the filament that will be used for the project. Please calculate that. Once that is done, we wil take another llook, and if everything is right, we will approve! :D

Hiya, a desk companion is a great project idea! Could you please fix your BOM, I think there is a formatting issue on line 3. Also, please make sure you pin down your total cost to a single number, so we know how much funding you require. Thanks!
