Subject: [alt-beam] Another robot video. This time a short snake.


As part of a project to build my own version of tildens lamprey and because
I'm curious about how master/slave bicores work in large strings I build a
four motor 'snake' which I've managed to tune to a 'wave' gait, where a wave
sort of travels down the motors. I'm waiting for another four motors to
finish it, and some other things that I'm out of. These motors don't seem to
like what I'm doing with them very much, so I may end up rebuilding it with
servo motors when I get more ca$h.
