This walking robot shifts its center of gravity to walk and turns by sliding its feet in opposite directions.
Hardware
The Toddler robot is a high quality robot CNC-machined from aluminum and brass. The aluminum parts are brushed, anodized, acid-etched to make the perfect finish (put the legs on a buffing wheel for a silver shine!). The package includes body parts, legs, ankles, control linkages, screws/nuts/standoffs, etc. Requires 2-3 hours to assemble and tune. The aluminum parts have holes, slots and configurable mounting angles for your own customization. A complete parts listing is available in Appendix A of the Advanced Robotics text (a FREE download).
Electronics
The Toddler is controlled by a surface mounted BASIC Stamp 2 module. Four infrared sensors and receivers, LEDs, servos for tilt and stride, resistors/capacitors, speaker, photoresistors complete the control system.
Documentation
The 155-page Advanced Robotics text is included.
Education
Walking robots have mechanical and software interdependencies that require in-depth examples and explanation. The Advanced Robotics text is a 155-page introduction to the Toddler's basic movements. Students using the Toddler robot will learn advanced embedded programming with BASIC, efficient code development, sensor feedback, and general control.
Assembly required.
