Hi... I am a beginner...

I want to make this robot...



I know it's a modular Robot,  but I'll have Axon Microcontroller in between and connect all the servos with wires.

I just want to know, whether it is possible for me to make such Robot using Axon Microcontroller... (I'll be using sensors and Hitec micro servos, and I want to upload my program into the microcontroller, so that it would be wireless (no PC <--> Microcontroller connection))

2nd thing, I'm not sure about how much programming can EEPROM support, ... (Assuming that the size/length of my programming would be triple of that of the robot in the video), do you think I could still upload my programming onto the Axon Microcontroller?

Thanks for the answer(s) ...

i may be mistaken, but generally modular robots have a microcontroller in every module, thats  what makes them modular, (if we're talking about the kind of robot that is actually made up of multiple identical pieces which when connected behave differently than they would when apart)

i don't really think you could recreate that effect with one microcontroller, however you could make a single, non-modular, robot that could move in a similar fashion.  and the axon should be more than capable of that

Since the robot in this video doesn't split in several independent parts that are also autonomous, I think it can be done as a one piece robot, much like a biped or quad. So yes, an Axon will work for this purpose.
