No Name Robot (yet)

Let's Make Robots Robots

So After wow, almost 8 years of building robots, Am now my sixth, while I don't have 6 Robots, they've always been like an evolution.

Since moving 6 years ago, to a house with a large garage, have been able to have the space and freedom to build lots of things, Arcade Cabinets from 32inch TV and Racing sim.
But building Robots being my main love, as with the attached 2 trailers for my kids and there friends, so much fun to be had.

But Dave brain wanted to build a bot with front steering, doing away with tank/skid steer

It looks very nice in this red and white color :slight_smile:

Any video of it in action?

Hey there,
When the weather start’s getting better, I’ll get the steering finished.
Then take it out doing some off roading, will post the videos on here and update.

Thanks

You win the grand price of a nice cold beer, but you have to collect it :slight_smile:

Think I’ll go with that.

What’s the vision for this sixth robot? Are you thinking of a specific use?

Hi there, GPS running waypoints, which I’ll start setting up in spring (Weather and garage sort out first), with long term goal of building an ARM to collect things.
Want to also setup a couple of the xbox360 Kinect’s, to scan the area’s I’m driving it about.
Will stick sensors on the front so that anything get’s in front of it, it stops.

But I’ve built 2 large trailers that have clipped onto the back of all my bot’s, I then take my kids and there friends out on it.
Have always used x2 12v = 24v 80ah batteries, so we are normally gone for a few hours.
