@mark11original The PEP sheet can be used to make precompiled sequences. The hexapod is controlled by a remote. All math is done onboard and makes it possible to dynamically controll the robot.
That's a very cool robot, and I just had a question... every hexapod robot like this one that I see is remote controlled, but would it be difficult to make an autonomous one?
Making a bot autonomous is like replacing the controller with a couple of sensors to see the environment. Some extra programming needs to be done to tell the bot where to go if it sees a obstacle. This can be as simple as turn when you run in to something to something really complex.
Getting a bot autonomous doesnt really depends on the way the bot travels. Hexapods are more limited about carrying weight though.
Very Impressive!! I have been looking for a good hexapod frame to scale up. The problem I have with most designs though, is that they're slow. Your design goes at a pretty fast pace compared to others I've seen. I saw this bot in the trossen robotics website for sale at almost 1k. I tell you, if I had that kind of money, then I'de defineately buy this!!
That is pretty cool, especially when rotating about the central axis. How did you create the programme? Was it all done on the PEP excel sheet?

Oh, thank you, that helps. I've been programming for years now, and know what I'm doing, but I'm only just getting into the whole robotics field.

Amazing!
The movements are so smooth with excellent speed & synchronization.
I also loved the stretching @ the beginning :P
