This is the preliminary documentation for the __[KD01]__ robot, a 2 wheel (plus caster) differential drive robot. It shares the same software, chassis components, basic drive train, motor encoders and controllers as the [KR01].
!! Description
There's not much online yet about the robot but there is a blog entry and three YouTube videos:
* [Differential Drive|https://robots.org.nz/2021/02/03/differential-drive/] (NZPRG blog entry)
* [KD01 Moth Behaviour|https://youtu.be/uoozN5BdepA]
* [KD01 Rotate in Place Test|https://youtu.be/HICrQzAZPow]
* [KD01 Rotate in Place|https://youtu.be/HFRrQuXLtvk] (first try)
!! I2C Bus
Things change all the time, but here's a sample of what's on the robot:

For sensor wires, wire markings are orange or red for port, green for starboard (just like on a boat).
