[Unable to display image]Hi everyone,
The challenge of building a walking robot has always fascinated me, I
had tried everything with the Technic Control Center, two, three, four,
legged robots. Non worked. Then on receiving the 'RIS' for Christmas I Found
a web site that I thought had solved my problems,
<A
HREF="http://home.concepts.nl/%7Ebvandam">http://home.concepts.nl/%7Ebvandam
</A>, his robot used one motor to drive all four legs, Wonderful. No. The
robot walked strangely and couldn't carry my RCX. So I scrapped this and
'designed' one from scratch, 3 hours later and several scrapped ideas,
'Boriz' was born It WORKED, but it wasn't strong enough to twist its middle
section and carry the RCX, back to work...
After more hours of toil I had redesigned all three motor drives and
if considerably slower, I had a robot that would carry anything... Boriz-2.
See attached photo to see my design. I know you cant see it very well but
full instructions / Design plans will be sent on request, Designs done with a
wonderful windows based Lego creator, LEO-CAD Get a copy from:

</A>
For the Program used and the instructions E-mail me at
Robot2n@yahoo.com, the instructions aren't finished yet but I'll get back to
anyone who e-mails me. Any comments are appreciated.

| Go here, and try not to drool. There are two working chicken walkers, one that can actually toe out the legs to turn. (URL) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics)
