Hype Robot Rocks Out With The Twitch Chat

DJ Pfeif created an entertaining automaton named Flippin Rhobot, designed to liven up Twitch streams. Controlled by an ESP32 microcontroller, Flippin Rhobot interacts with the chat on DJ Pfeif’s stream. The robot has a humanoid shape and can rotate and wave its arms thanks to a few servos. It also features a small computer terminal that displays the “Hack the Planet” logo when it faces the screen, along with addressable LEDs that flash and dance on command.
