"Walking Hexapod"



Although not done as an industrial project, I felt this was interesting enough to include here.

Interesting features of these machine include:
-Represented Clemson in the 2004 regional ASME meeting.
-Uses Parallax Basic Stamp II Controller programmed in PBASIC
-Uses stand-alone servo controller (3 servos) in order to free up more processor power and increase overall speed
-Using high-torque servo for lifting legs is able to walk carrying several times its own weight.



Original AutoCAD drawing and assembled robot.
