Simple Walker – finished

The simple 2-servo walker (which I hope to use as a fablab-ready robot kit) went through its first paces today. The microcontrollerboard used is an ATmega32.. my ‘ottantotto’s haven’t arrived yet 🙁

The robot walks well, now it’s time to make it turn, avoid obstacles, sit up, make noise, etc… You can see it walk on Youtube

If you want to build your own: see the previous post on construction details. You have to get some parts, such as two RC servo’s, 4 AA batteries, battery container, microcontroller board, etc..

Then you have to make the mechanics. Here is a pdf which you need to cut or saw out of a sheet of polycarbonate, perspex, plywood .. walker
