serial ports are still used by a lot of professional apps in the industrie. they have some advantages to usb connections. longer cables, much easier driver-software and sometimes more stable connections.
yes, a pico mobo would be fine for something larger than a qrio. btw: there a also faster microcontrollers than atmegas, like arm7 or arm9, witch can be used in larger robots, but the software-developement is a little bit more complex. ... i was born 1964 an i love 8-bit controllers ;-)
an atx mobo is not all you need ... you also need a power supply for the mobo and the x86. hox much power needs a x86? i thing its a little bit more than 5V and 50mA witch is enough for an atmega128. You also need a harddisk for the mobo and D/A- and A/D- converters, IO-Ports ... not easy to put all that in a litte bot. and not cheap.
umm, how about pico atx, and you should know most computers these days use the 12v rail, not 5v.and MOST mobos suport usb booting, so i think an 8 flash would be enough right? i've never built something like this so please don't get pissed at me.
i think, a pico atx is a very good solution for larger robots or wheel-bots. microcontrollers have a lot of components inside: ram, eeprom, AD/DA-converters, IO-Ports, serial ports and so on. with a pico, all that would have to be extra hardware. this would be to heavy for a small hexapod.
another option is to outsource the computerpower to a normal desktop pc by a wireless connection.
btw: sorry for my poor english, but i do my very best
thats actually what i meant before, to outsource to a pc, but i guess I wasn't clear. oh, and you guys still use serial ports, those died LONG ago.don't worry about your grammar, it's fine.so pico would be good for something like, 2x the size of qrio?
well hes got the motion right but its on the slow motion if he wanted to kick the speed up hed have the 2 outside on the left and the middle on the right move at the same time and then alternate keeping the fluid natural motion but speeding up the process then add some reversing and then forwarding would make the turn sharper(i think). and bigger legs would though make it bigger, look a bit more proportionate and get more distance on every step. but overall phenomenal work! the lights were nice.

hey this really good! where do you learn to build this? I want to build one too but I don't have any experience.

would someone please explain why we can't just use a standerd atx mobo and get the software required to run on an x86 cpu?
