Hey all:
No no, I haven't built one, but this idea just came up.
A Snake. A Walker. How about a snake that walks? I do not have the
experience to build such a robot yet, so I'm just throwing this idea out in
hopes of someone creating it.
Is this as simple as taking a 4 motor walker, adding one or two horizontal
joints in the middle, and have it controlled by 6 pulses of a microcore?
Perhaps not. I have no clue.
This is not such a farfetched idea, so I thought I'd share it.
Keep on building,
Evan
P.S. It's copyrighted, this idea! Just kidding.
