| About the AH2 Walking Robot The AH2 hexapod robot uses an advanced mechanical advantage leg design. This leg design provides the maximum holding strength with the minimum current draw. The two DOF (degree of freedom) allows this robot to be steered like a tank. Forward, reverse, gradual and in place turning is supported. The robot uses 12 HS-422 servos for the legs. The combo kit includes everything you need to make a functional robot except batteries. This is sure to be a popular implementation of the traditional inline hexapod design. The Mechanics The robot is made from ultra-tough laser-cut PVC structural components, custom injection molded components, and high-quality aluminum Servo Erector Set brackets. Controlling the Robot The combo kit comes with the SSC-32, Bot Board II, and BASIC Atom Pro 28. By offloading the servo pulse generation and sequence movement timing to the SSC-32 the BASIC Atom has plenty of power to do some really cool things. The current programming allows the robot to walk from PS2 control or autonomously. The leg lift and ride height is adjustable as well as the gait walking speed. There are preset walking modes for tall grass, tile floor, low profile and normal operation. Everything is included except the Play Station game controller. Powering Options The robot is compatible with the following batteries and chargers. Chargers > NiCad & Ni-MH Universal Smart Charger (USC-01) Batteries > 6.0 Volt Ni-MH 1600mAh Battery Pack (BAT-03) > 6.0 Volt Ni-MH 2800mAh Battery Pack (BAT-05) Important! To keep costs down we are not providing printed Assembly Guides. They are provided online, so you will need to print them when you order the kits. By providing the Assembly Guides online we can provide more detailed and up to date information than the old hardcopy method allowed. |
