The only problem with using individual servo control is speed, the time it takes to move 12 servos by individual commands is rather long. This has the effect of slowing the walker down considerably. A dedicated controller such as the MSCC11 that I (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I believe the best thing to do is use separte controlers (e.g. PICs) to control the specific motions of the servo's. This will allow you to have more control over the HB. There are several places on the web (e.g. (URL) where you can find info on (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I previously posted information on the list about the controller and chassis that I am intending on using for my six legged walker so checking the archives may be useful. I am using an MSCC11 from Novasoft as a servo controller, I don't believe the (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi all Iam thinking about making a six legged walking robot using servos and wondered if anybody has already built one. I want to use two servos per leg one for lifting and another for the sweeping action so giving 12 in total. One thing i want to (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

You can do this in IC 3.2, perhaps not in the freeware version. -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Prosser <christopherprosser@yahoo.com> To: FEDSANTE@tin.it <FEDSANTE@tin.it>; handyboard@media.mit.edu <handyboard@media.mit.edu> Date: (...)

I decided to jump off the deep end and have created a new mail list for anyone interested in legged/walking robots regardless of CPU or "brain board". You can join this list by sending a mail message to legged-robots-subscr...groups.com or you can (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I have been researching this exact topic for almost a year now. I started off looking at the Handyboard do to its popularity and strong robotic application design but ultimately I've decided to use one or more Atmel processors do to their speed and (...)
