The Affectron 1.0 Robotics kit was developed as a special birthday present: it includes a manual and box of parts and custom-fabricated components that lead the recipient through a variety of concepts in programming and robotics, culminating in a completed robot that gives hugs. I designed and fabricated the body template and box, assembled and tested the robotic components, and designed/layouted the instructions document. I also collaborated on content for the document and code testing for the repository.
