I built a simple hexapod with only 8 servos, and no complicated inverse-kinematics to calculate - and it's open source!

I built an open source hexapod which only uses eight servos (instead of 18). It uses rack and pinions so the axis move in straight lines and we don't need to calculate any inverse-kinematics. Full video link in bio.

Full video link in bio. I built a simple Hexapod with only 8 servos and an ESP32 remote. It uses rack and pinions so each axis moves in a straight line, then we don't need to calculate any inverse kinematics. #robotics #3dprinted #testing #mechanical
#ad The @LEGO Group asked me to build a mega musical karaoke organ. I used seven LEGO Star Wars SMART Play Mos Eisley Cantina Sets, fourteen SMART Bricks and fourteen different Minifigures. I built a structure and mechanics so that all fourteen SMART Bricks move in sync, and you can select which character sings along.

#ad The @LEGO Group sent me a bunch of the new LEGO Star Wars SMART Play sets to take a look at. The new SMART Bricks have lots of features packed into them, and they don’t use any screens or apps. The SMART Bricks charge wirelessly and power up when you shake them. The main functions are activated when SMART Tags or SMART Minifigures are placed near them, and the sounds are synthesized which means the same SMART Bricks can be used for other themes in the future.

I built a simple Robot Dog with only six servos, and it's Open Source! Details in latest video - link in bio.

Trying to steer the One-Ball Bike. It's very light to turn so I think I'll blow it around to control the yaw axis! Full video link in bio.

Full One-Ball Bike video link is in bio. I built a bike that balances me on a ball. I'm using three ODrive Brushes motors and a Teensy 4.1 running two PID loops. More in this project coming soon.
