Cheap & Quick PCB, 3D Printing, CNC machining, and fabrication services from PCBWay pcbway.com/g/v8fQIG - Hi everyone! In this video, I will show you an amazing eight-legged robot in the Octopod style! It is made entirely from 3D-printed parts and moves with a cool mechanism inspired by the Jansen Mechanism. Two simple DC motors power the legs, allowing them to move in a smooth and balanced way. A simple Infrared sensor circuit and controller were used to control the robot. I will start the project by assembling the 3D pieces step by step, just like a puzzle, so let's get started!
Actually, you can build the circuit with an Arduino board and a motor driver shield, but in this project I will use a two-in-one circuit board of my own design. I used this circuit board in a previous project and it was very popular with my followers! So I made some updates and shared the final version on the PCBWay project page. This board design is simple but very efficient, it combines a motor driver and a microcontroller together, making it easy for projects involving motors. You can choose PCBWay for low-price and high-quality PCBs. Thanks to @PCBWay for their support of the project!
