Updates

Lower Layer

This layer recieved minimal modifications, mostly to reduce weight. The drive and steering systems work exactly the same as in the previous prototype (Prototype 2).

We reduced significantly the weight from this layer, adjusting it to the components. This helped up reduce 10 grams in total weight, which doesn't sound like a lot, and, it really isn't, but thanks to those 10 grams, Klevor was barely inside the reglamentary limits.

Upper Layer

This layer's redesign is a lot more evident however, we replaced the previous layer with a new mount, made specifically for the Shargeek Storm 2 on this layer, and, above the power bank, the Raspberry Pi 5 is placed.

Aditionally, we used the estructure and location of the RPLiDAR C1 to use it as a support without interfering in its functioning, since it is placed upside down, we can place the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 WH above it, and, at the front, we can place the Raspberry Camera Module 3 Wide.

This helped enormously to solve our main issue, which was weight, this modification helped us save the mount for all of these components. In total, our upper layer went from 42 g to just 18 g, which translates to Klevor being under the limit, being just 1470 g.
