Hi
I hope I'll find some guidance here.
I'm a computer engineer and I want to make an hexapod (6 legged robot).
I have no special knowledge about robotics.
What should I do ? where do I start?
>>
>>7949925

Try youtube or LEGO Mindstorms
>>
actuators anon, actuators.
>>
sorry I should have mentioned that I made one with 3 servos controlling each leg. Now I don't know what to do next
>>
>>7949952
Pics? Now hook em' up to power and PWM and write some software to control them
>>
>>7949955
I'm not home right now to take pics.
The problem lies there. How do I pick an optimal way for the robot to move ?

>How do I pick an optimal way for the robot to move
Make it learn how to move with genetic algorithms.
>>
>>7949971
interesting.Mind to expand?
>>
>>7949925
Making a hexapod on your own?
That will require a lot of time.
>>
>>7949983
I've got 1 month
>>
>>7949963
alternating tripod gait. You got inverse kinematics working right?
>>
>>7950000
I've got the inverse kinematics of a single leg. What should I do ?
>>
>>7950011
Implement alternating tripod gait.
>>

>Buy toy
>Claim muh robot

Master's thesis: ok
>>
>>7949925
Go back to school and study something useful this time.

That is gonna be a rough one.
unless you just want it to be able to walk. If you want it be more intelligent I doubt you will make it all by yourself.

buy one
make it walk
finished
>>
>>7950072
the goal is to make it autonomous. Now I need to get it moving. Like I said I've already built one all I need now is to figure out how to make it move properly
