Description
This repo is an upgrade to my previous project, Cubic Doggo: https://github.com/SphericalCowww/CubicDoggoIt has since implemented an IMU and several mechanical reinforcements. The next step will be simulation and reinforcement learning.

Could you build this?
No A physical 12-DOF quadruped robot involves mechanical CAD engineering, custom electronics, embedded real-time kinematics firmware, and reinforcement learning control policies.
What it would actually take: Requires mechanical engineering in CAD (SolidWorks/Fusion360) for structural rigidity and 3D printing, selection of high-torque brushless/servo actuators, and PCB layout for power distribution and microcontrollers (ESP32/STM32). On the software side, it demands an IMU fusion filter, inverse kinematics, and modern quadruped locomotion policies trained in Isaac Gym or MuJoCo and deployed on edge hardware.
