Building a hexapod robot

Submitted by baz on Mon, 15/02/2010 - 00:37

Here is my micromagic/openservo hexpod (as yet unnamed) build log

I am building a hexapod robot based on Micromagic systems hex chassis MSR-H01

The goals are:

Use a master control board to drive 18 + OpenServos on a hexpod robot. Possibly use a Beagleboard.
write a Player compatible framework for the master hex controller.
Write a Stage/Gezebo plugin for visualising the data on the host.
