Project Name: Phoenix Hexapod Author: Kåre Halvorsen (aka Zenta)
Phoenix is a hexapod robot with 3DOF per leg. Hardware consists of SSC32, 18 servos and BlueSMIRF bluetooth interface. Software on PC is Visual Sequencer and a MS Excel spreadsheet I’m calling PEP (Phoenix Excel Program). PEP take cares of forward and inverse kinematics and body rotation along all axes. It is possible to easy define direction of walking and define center of rotation. Ex. you can define center of rotation at the center of left forward tars (foot). But the most important thing is that it’s possible to create sequences and walking gaits that you can copy into a .csv file and import it to the Visual Sequencer. You can download PEP (Phoenix Excel Program) and the manual here: PEP v1.09 Excel Sheet (07-11-08) (zipped) PEP v1.09 Lynxmotion-Phoenix Compatible Excel Sheet (07-11-08) (zipped) PEP Complete Manual (04-01-08) (pdf) Here are some pre-made sequences: Phoenix3 - "Complete project" (05-19-08) (zip) Phoenix4 - "Phoenix and the Box part II" (05-19-08) (zip) Phoenix5 - "Body rotation" (05-19-08) (zip) Check out these videos of Phoenix in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OF0x4oH4wps http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtfFk2CTUUU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5tdLAvYpNY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuIqfnJ0w74 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCnxmrh1otI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_QUk7pL5lw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqWKGh4XLbk If you have any comments or suggestions on Phoenix, check out this project on our forums: http://www.lynxmotion.net/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2743 If you have any comments or suggestions on PEP, check out this project on our forums: http://www.lynxmotion.net/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=3117
