What does the battery pack in the base of the robot provide power to?

The battery pack in the base of the robot is primarily responsible for providing power to the robot's critical components, particularly the motor signal processing circuits (SPCs). These SPCs are vital for the operation of the motors, as they interpret the commands sent from the main controller and manage the electrical signals that drive the motors. This connection ensures that the motors can operate efficiently and react appropriately to the control signals, making the SPCs essential for the robot's mobility and functionality.

While servos in the joints, the main controller, and sensors all require power for operation, the specific role of the battery pack focuses on supporting the motor SPCs, ensuring they have the necessary power for processing and controlling the motors effectively.
