Hello, thanks for commenting. Arduino IDE seems to be easier to use. However, if I need to work with C/C++, Python code, JSON files, other programming languages' code and other data - all in one environment, it is much easier in a universal IDE. Does Arduino IDE allow to handle different programming languages and files of different formats?
Impressive! Better than James "RobotX" Burton. Next, on the lateral movement, how about applying momentum to the body to let the behind foot off the surface ;)
CAD or STL files might be released in some future. Source code might be also released. But due to imperfections in 3D Printing and assembling, it will be not very useful without rewriting it. Therefore, I am planning to make some tutorials, and only after that releasing anything.
That was the first attempt to create a gait. This imperfection happened. In later videos that was changed. See: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-626CDyniKwM.html However, there is still space for improvements.
At this moment, there are no CAD files available to download, but I am considering whether or not to release all 3D printable parts as STLs on GrabCAD in the future.
@@nixrobot Awesome to hear! Wondering if anything we can assist? We'd love to sponsor free services including custom PCBs, 3DP/CNC'd parts. (PCBWay zoey)
Hi, I'm new to robotics(still learning arduino) and I was wondering how do you give your robots such moves without tipping it? Moreover, how do even balance it while it attempts to stand on its limbs? I'm so curious!
Hi! This is due to smart servos, the right programming, and large x-shaped feet. Therefore, the robot can easily stand on one of its legs. Here you can see even more advanced moves: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-626CDyniKwM.html
Great looking project. There appears to be a passive joint at the bottom of the ankle. Doesn't that give stability problems when the robot is on one foot? What led to that design choice?
