Hexapod documentary


"This version is 3D printed using a Stratasys Dimension 3d printer. These parts are extremely rugged and precise compared to any of the Makerbot and RepRap hobby grade 3D printers."


 "I'm interested in robot locomotion that emulates biological movement," Bunting said. "And in doing more work on robotic vision."
^exact same as me!


The
Note to self: Figure out how to generate these API documentation pages for future projects.

" am currently working on a CNC machine to build parts out of aluminum. I hope to begin prototyping aluminum parts in the next few months, but this is a complicated process when it comes to generating G-code to machine the parts from my complicated 3D designs."

"Matt has since then added several features, like foot sensors, 3D balance gestures, and the hexapod also has a 3DOF camera for doing face tracking. Awesome!"

The lesson here is multiple iterations!! Make something, get feedback, and improve!
