Robot Building for Beginners back in sto...

Ok, besides being a conjunction of two things we really love (Make Magazine & BEAM Robotics), it also is an open-source hardware project that is about little "T-Beams". This project is using the "KickStarter" model of sponsorship. Ask for pledges for the projects, and if the minimum is met (and it has - yay!), the […]

Isn’t it nice when you can hit two birds with one stone? That’s exactly what we’ve done as we approach both Arduino Day and Saint Patrick’s Day with our version of the Chug-O-Meter! We absolutely loved what the circuit.io team did with their Chug Meter but thought that we could add more to its survivability […]

Jerome Demers, our ex-intern of two seasons, just sent me a link to one of his latest projects. The (sigh...) "Fart-o-Meter". He even put it up on Instructables too. Good to see the experience he got at Solarbotics is being put to good use...

The following instructions detail how to build a Servocore walker. A Servocore walker differs from a regular walker by utilizing the internal electronics in unmodified servos, which give position feedback from the motor in the servo. This position feedback allows for very long stride lengths without the use of mechanical stops or springs.
