no distance sensors for autonomous walking?

Super size this thing and attach Gatling guns to its face

dayum man this is awesome! the movements are so smooth which is very hard with a mechanical device ofcourse, im sure you've been asked this a lot but did you ever think of trying to market these to a factory or something? sorry if i worded that funny but you get my drift :P i know theres a load of people who would buy one of these :)

Ive got another question too. In this video where its playing with the box. Was it programed to do those steps? Or was it controlled by you in real time?

@12dart12 What robot are you referring to? A-Pod is remote controlled to carry the box. Phoenix manipulate the box using predefined motion.

@ZentaOlbaid A-Pod, i mean is it controlled in real time? Like RC or was it programed to do those steps eg, walk forward, open jaw, grab box. If you know what i mean.
12dart12 4 months ago
@12dart12 Real time, like RC. Using a custom made remote controller. Check out my first workshop video and you'll get the picture ;-)

This looks like something you would buy from a store and build.... Its amazing! How much did this cost to build and would you ever consider making this a kit for people to buy? Or release the documents on how to build and code one like this?

@12dart12 Visit Lynxmotion, they are soon going to sell it as a kit..
