India's first Six legged robot made from scrap. In this project , a model of a Six-Legged walking machine is introduced, considering the biological locomotion principles of a spider. Principles from the nature are used both for the geometry of the model and architecture of the controller. A unique tripod gait pattern has been simulated on a computer and then implemented on the prototype. This gait pattern gives the robot six independent direction of motion. With this biological like controller the machine can be modified move on unknown, uneven ground automatically detecting and climbing obstacles. More details can be obtained in the following web page(including photos) http://members.theglobe.com/vibhuv/hexalr.htm I want to start a new concept of 'CHEAP ROBOTICS' for research work using SCRAP !!. My robot cost us about $800. Email: vibhuv@hotmail.com
