The new crib! I bought a cheap folding table at walmart. A microphone stand holds the wires suspended above the table, and the computer under the table of course.
I am having trouble with getting the servos to launch the robot off its feet, so it doesn’t drag the leg. Although, I think the problem more is on my interaction with SEQ, as I am still learning it. (There has been some unintentional launching of the robot so far though :8)
It looks cool. Might try to keep the feet under the bots COG. Get into the region of falling and controlling the fall. Think maybe much shorter but faster leg movements. Anyway it looks fun.
Yes, it is all SEQ FK right now. It did take a little time (maybe five hours or so) to make the gait. The hardest part was finding the right angle for the hip servos so that kicking off didn’t fall back immediately nor fall forward (poor thing did both many times ) Once that was done though, it progressed rapidly.
(And we won’t mention my deletion of my first few hours of work because of stupid human error…)
I made an almost exact duplicate of that robot two years ago, intending to call it an April Fools project, but I never got around to uploading it. Very well done!
