Product information "DFRobot ArcBotics Robotics Hexapod Kit"

The Hexapod (Hexy) from ArcBotics is a fully articulated hexapod >robot kit. It has 6 legs, 19 servo motors and is powered by an Arduino, while being less expensive than other hexapod robots. It makes complex robotics less expensive, easier to learn with the tutorials and documentation, and radically more fun (and cute!). At the same time, it's built with completely open-source hardware and software, making it as easy to discover and expand as it is to build.

Hexy has been featured by Engadget, Wired, the New York Times, MAKE and many others.

Use it to learn advanced robotics concepts like inverse kinematics, or use pre-built code to make it run the way you want. Build it using the high quality illustrated instructions and it's ready to run, play and dance with pre-built demos. Adding moves is as easy as opening and editing a text file, and the moves can be shared as simple text files.

Features
  • Low cost, 1/10 the price of other Hexapod kits
  • Programme moves as a text file. Simple commands such as 'turn right 40 degrees'
  • Easy programming of other functions. Arduino microcontroller, Python motion generator/controller
  • Easy to assemble ? Complete step-by-step tutorials geared towards high school level and beyond
  • Fully Arduino compatible, the Servotor32 controller uses the same chip as the Arduino Leonardo
  • Demo moves are already available. Get it dancing as soon as you build it!
  • Fully open-source. Code, laser cutter DXF/STL/SLDWRKS files, electronic board files, everything.
