Otto Pikachu robot

What happens when you mix pop culture, creative tech, and a dash of childlike wonder? You get Otto Pikachu

Otto Pikachu was assembled using modular components from our HP Otto kit. We refined the concept using Makers Empire, a kid-friendly 3D modeling tool, and prepared the parts for printing on a Prusa 3D printer. The goal: keep it simple, snappy, and modular enough for classroom builds.
