Powered by finely trained Slowpokes!

Though, the robot is awesome, I couldn't imagine it is possible to build such a flexible construction with a NXT. How many motors does it use?

@Yurrist, As per the "Discription" it is 10 DoF(10 lego servos) though the latest version is 11 dof now, to be filmed sooner or later as time yields.

this is an awesome robot.

but, no offense, remember who you are showing this too: the internet. try putting the videos in x2 speed or something, or have a x2 video and a normal video.

keep up the great work!

:D

@catattack998 Not a bad idea, there is a reason to have the "real time" raw footage. But, I will from now on put a 8-16x speed footage first then the real time after, if the total footage is more than 1 minute. The bot looks very cool at 16x but not real too, at that speed a bot would move in another way since it would be a dynamic gate. X-2 is a static in its gate. But its only Lego too so its not going to run around like Asimo as well.

While watching this, I couldn't resist humming to myself the 2001 Space Odyssey song ((dun... dun... duuuun... DUNDUN!!)) lol, great stuff :D

@catattack998 go to google labs. Looking through the pages, you can find an option to set youtube to HTML-5 videos, instead of flash. Once you did that, you can select the speed you want to watch the vids at (up to twice as fast).

The robot is awesome, anyways!

That's an incredible milestone, keep up with the good work. Bravo.
