Quad Walker
Primary image
What does it do?
Been working on a building a quad walker probably for a year now. What started of a coding project has now ended up with me learning how to 3d model and building a kit 3d printer.
Along with scope of the project, the size of walker also grew. It was originally planned to use small 9g servers and probably end up 20cm across in total. Though I moved to using standard r/c card servos and as a result each leg will be around 20cm. No idea how big the body will need to be to house everything else.

Been working on a building a quad walker probably for a year now. What started of a coding project has now ended up with me learning how to 3d model and building a kit 3d printer.
The size of walker also grew, it started of using little 9g servos and now using full-size r/c car servos.
At moment, I’ve only modelled the leg at the moment, though I’m reasonable confident this will be the near final version before starting the body.
Will post more soon

Nerf-firing Rover
Primary image
What does it do?
Navigate via RC control, fires Nerf gun, supports autonomous control via Raspberry Pi
This rover makes use of the following:
CPPM RC radio input from openTx RC radio
Arduino Nano to handle communcations from RC, Raspberry Pi via USB (not attached yet), I/O to servos via i2c, I/O to/from Roboclaw motor controller via serial (gets velocity from encoders on motors), and output to various DC-driven devices (headlight, gripper).

Otto - build you own robot in two hours!
Primary image
What does it do?
Otto walks, dances, makes sounds and avoids obstacles, is completely open source, Arduino compatible, 3D printable, and with a social impact mission to create an inclusive environment for all kids.
Otto was inspired by another robot instructable BoB the BiPed and programmed using code from another open source biped robot called Zowi.
CC-BY-SA
Otto's differences are in the assembled size (11cm x 7cm x12cm), cleaner integration of components and expressions.

Internet Connected Trash Can Robot That Talks
Primary image
What does it do?
This IOT project started out serious, then I kept thinking of funny things I wanted to make it do. The only way I could think to present it was a corny infomercial style video. It talks, sends you an email when its full, and I made an accompanying Android App for more control over its functionality.
Full Instructions:

Code and Android App can be found on: www.WireBeings.com
You need: A cheap trash can (this one is from Target)

Speech Recognition and Synthesis with Arduino
In my previous post, I showed how to control a few LEDs using an Arduino board and BitVoicer Server. In this post, I am going to make things a little more complicated.
