Farrusco tries to write ‘LMR’ While coding new interactivity into Farrusco, and trying to achieve more control on the way it moves, I though it would be cool to see what happens if I mount one little servo to hold a pen, and tell him to write ‘LMR’
It’s steerable. My thinking is that it wouldn’t take too much to stick a servo on the steering head. It already has a drive motor. It doesn’t even need an H-bridge control as it has no requirement to ever go backwards.
It would be sweet if someone could write LMR in dominoes!
I’m afraid I can’t remember where we got the toy, but it couldn’t be too hard to replicate.
Unfortunately (see video) it sometimes knocks them over. Need a better mechanism.
