A-Pod is an ant inspired hexapod robot with a 2 DOF abdomen (tail), a 3 DOF head with large mandibles. 6 legs with 3 DOF each. Total 25 servos. This video demonstrates body movement and mandible control. I still have to do some mechanical improvements to the legs (therefore little walking). The robot are remotely controlled with a custom 2,4 GHz RC transmitter. The Basic Atom Pro 28 are used as the main microcontroller. Visit www.basicmicro.com for more info about the BAP28.

Sound track: Artist: Trifonic with Lies (Instrumental).
