Hi Guys,
Im new to the forum (which is brill by the way) and I would like to
introduce my Hexapod... Heximotional
This started as a final year project at Uni to create a control
algorithm for a 3DOF Hexapod, which included Forward kinematics
(6DOF or body orientation, 3DOF for locomotion) and Inverse
kinematics (determine each legs orientation). Since finishing the
project I have been writing an App for the iPhone or iPod Touch
capable of not only being the controller interface for the user but
also able to run the control algorithm. To my knowledge making it
the first robot to use an iPhone as its brain. Here is the first video

Before I had the iPhone App working the control algorithm ran on
my laptop, which made it possible to use a PlayStation Sixaxis
controller

And Briefly it became a Quadruped...
