Safety, power and building
Build robots safely and reliably.
📖 Key ideas
- Batteries: Li-ion/LiPo need proper chargers and protection.
- Include emergency stop buttons.
- Secure wiring and use fuses.
- Design chassis with CAD and 3D printing.
- Test in safe areas; follow safety standards in industry (ISO 10218).
💡 Real-life example: Robot safety is seatbelts and brakes in a car: added before driving, not after an accident.
