Bring a four-legged robot to life by coordinating its leg movements and body posture.
Functions
- Explore walking, turning and programmed postures.
- Develop your own servo movement sequences.
- Learn how timing affects a walking robot's balance.
Components & hardware
Spider-style structure, servo-driven leg system, ESP8266 controller and assembly hardware.
Technology
ESP8266 microcontroller; Arduino-compatible programming.
How it works
The controller sends timed position commands to the leg servos. A gait repeats these movements in a coordinated order so some legs support the body while others move forward.
