The Write LMR Challenge

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’

This is the result :slight_smile: https://www.robotshop.com/letsmakerobots/node/2306

Dominoes

I don’t have time to do this myself, but if someone else does, please feel free to pick it up and run with it.

This is a video of a little $8 toy which lays a trail of dominoes behind it.

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.

OMG

OMG, its awesome… Greath job, think its a auto win hahaha

Its crazy well done.
