This robot runs on an arduino uno and it has 4 servos to walk. It will use a sliding counter weight to so one servo will be able to lift the other half and this will make it not fall over. It is currently a work in progress and still needs to be programmed.
It walks forward in a straight line.
- Actuators / output devices: Servos
- Control method: autonomous
- CPU: arduino uno
- Operating system: Arduino IDE
- Power source: 9 Volt Battery
- Programming language: C++
- Sensors / input devices: none
- Target environment: indoor flat surfaces

cheers!
woohoo! you have posted it! cool!
nice!
This is pretty cool! I always love walkers/bipeds. You might have an issue with the balancing when one leg is trying to lift the other. You might have to use another servo or even a weight hanging from a string, on top to move the weight side by side. Almost like a pendulum.
I know Im adding big feet
I know Im adding big feet and a sliding counter weight.
The distance in between to
The distance in between to leg is too far that you will lose the balance. Need to find a way to shift the weight to the leg which standing on the ground while you walking.
I said in the description
I said in the description that I’m adding a sliding counter weight and I’ll put the legs closer together too
Have you given up on this
Have you given up on this one? I’m really excited to see how it turns out (it’s okay, I don’t often finish robot projects that I start either
