Title: Beam Hexpod
Post by: slash2k01 on December 04, 2007, 12:39:41 PM

Hi there,

Myself and a couple of friends built a beam hexpod for a university project I have just built a webpage for it with the design and some photos and a video.  I would like people to have a look and see what you guys think.

Unfortunatley, I don't have a longer video, that video was taken before the LDR circuit was connected whilst we worked on the walking, one of the other guys from the team has the bot at the moment, it was a couple of years ago now.

tbh we only used the bio bug for the shell, we didnt even use the GM's we just used the project budget and got all the parts from solarbotics.
