That has to feel so incredibly satisfying when all 6 legs pass that initial check! Awesome project, and I'm glad you're sticking with it. I'm wondering if it would make sense to put a spring on the femurs such that it uses more energy to raise the legs, but less energy to stand still or push down. I'm no engineer, but I would think that would result in a significant savings in energy as the hexapod is constantly draining the batteries just to stand still.

It really is satisfying! And that might work, I may have to redesign the leg if I implemented a spring though so I'll keep that idea in reserve if I have any issues with the current design.

Doesn't the Arduino Mega have enough I/O pins to directly control the servos? I'm a fan of the Parallax Propeller microcontroller and I used a Propeller Quickstart board to control 22 servos on my hexapod. Four of the servos controlled the eyes. I'm presently trying to upgrade my hexapod to use the Propeller 2 microcontroller. I ran out of RAM with the original Propeller and I'm hoping I can use the extra RAM and extra computing power of the Propeller 2 to male my hexapod better. If you get a chance, I'm hoping you'll take a look at my hexapod. I think it's my channel's trailer. I'm looking forward to watching your progress. Thanks for sharing your work with us. It's always fun to see other people's robots.

Hello, my name is João Pedro Almeida. I'm from IEEE RAS CIMATEC in Brazil. We are developing a hexapode robot using ROS Humble embedded in a beaglebone board and the same servo motors you are using. We are following the development of your hexapode and we really like the CAD done. Could you make the modeling available in the description of your youtube video and if possible the source code as well?

I've been watching a bunch of hexapod videos lately and I'm here from your first part (the legs) I want to try making hexapods too but I don't have any experience with electronics and stuff at all, so I'm pretty lost how should I get started?

Depending on the Arduino it certainly could. You'll likely need something with lots of pins like an Arduino Mega. If you need more processing power you could offload stuff to a stronger MCU.

Awesome! Interesting too, question? Is it possible to use a motor driver too instead of a servos driver? Plus the motor driver says for robotic too.
@StewartTechnologies
Жыл бұрын
Most servo motors have their own motor driver inside along with an encoder wired together for closed-loop control. To control a servo you only need power and a control signal (typically PWM). That's why I use a servo driver since it can produce multiple control signals simultaneously. Depending on the servo you might be able to get away with controlling it directly with a microcontroller, no driver needed. Motor drivers are typically for DC motors only.

If you only have a small number of servos then you could power them externally and use the PWM pins on your microcontroller to control them. No need for an external controller!
