Lego Mindstorms NXT Pneumatic- X6 Hexapod

X6 Hexaped, walker. Outdoor testing. The cold had a bit of a slowing of the pneumatic parts. This was the first test out doors in the dirt. A work in progress. This versions main concern was to try to get all the parts inside as compared to the first.

    I love question that make me smile:) You are right, wheels are very easy to make motion. Though i am of the school of Rube Goldberg and Doc Brown, the class of Over built, overly complex.Best examples of this are my “It the stix 1-2″ Now where did i put my flux copacitor, great scott!

    Regards,
    Doc

    Though in this video it is not programmed to turn, this was just too see how it would handle being in dirt and uneven terrain. It can make turns: One nxt motor moves 3 legs 1 on 1 side and two on the other . the other 3 leggs have two motors, 1 moves the two on 1 side and 1 turns 1 on the other side. this lets it pivot, again this is a SLOW robot but it is self contained and rather heavy.
