Animabot, an Advanced Hexapod Robot

Let's Make Robots Robots
1

Animabot is an advanced hexapod robot created to interact with humans and its environment.

For the second version of Animabot I wanted something different. I didn’t want to see the motors nor the electronic nor the cables...
I also want him more powerful, more intelligent and more friendly !
So, for the design I opted for a full 3D printed body, which allow me smooth forms and complex shapes.

WOW!
Amazing project. The printing process must have been long. I like the look; it’s neat and smooth.
Do you have a video? I’d love to see it in action :slight_smile: Thanks for sharing!

Thanks !
It took quite some time to print all the parts indeed… but the design was more painful than the printing process :no_mouth:
I’m not completely satisfied with the result, I could have done better :grinning:
I added a small video but no walking gaits yet…

This looks like it just came out of a factory or a lab, very pro-looking! I hope you’re proud of yourself because this shows that you’ve put a lot of work into it!

Good job!

You can rebuild him, you have the technology!
