NOTchi Mini Robot Companion Accessory
Print Profile(1)

Description
Last year I started seeing a lot of viral videos of the Dasai Mochi along with many clones from other companies. I decided that $50+ for a Mochi is steep given the cost of the parts to make one so I decided to design something similar. Presenting the NOTchi. It runs on an ESP32-C6 powered by a USB-C cable and it displays over 30 gifs at random on a 0.96" OLED screen. The helmet is inspired by a robot from the series Love, Death, and Robots.
Components:
ESP32-C6 Mini - Amazon (Use the ESP32-C6 Mini as I cannot guarantee the code will work on other ESP32's.)
ESP32-C6 Mini - AliExpress (Use the ESP32-C6 Mini as I cannot guarantee the code will work on other ESP32's.)
0.96" OLED Display - AliExpress
(The above two are examples. You'll just need four Dupont style female to female short jumper wires.)
Tiny Screws. The four I used came off of an old laptop. Any will work as long as they're about 1.5mm in diameter and less then 5mm long.
Software:
Arduino IDE
Note: I am not the creator of the Arduino Code, but I did have to make quite a few changes to the original so that it would work with the ESP32-C6 and 0.96" OLED Display.
Programming and Assembly:
- Download both folders in the Arduino Code Link above.
- Open Arduino IDE (ensure you have all prerequisites listed at the top of the code, and send it to the ESP32-C6.
- Push the ESP32-C6 into the frame.
- Using Dupont jumpers connect SDA, SCL, VCC, and GND to their corresponding pins on the OLED display.
- Power on the ESP-32 to verify everything is operating as intended.
- Screw the OLED display to the frame.
- Tuck in any exposed wires.
- Press the frame into the helmet.
- Assembly complete
