Made some progress on my hexapod code today. I have written a function that moves all 18 servos in little steps. I had to use the delay function though. I then made a sketch to move the body of the hexapod up and down as smoothly as possible. You can see the result in the […]

After blowing up a couple of expensive 8A UBECs I think I have found a solution to powering the 18 servos. I am now using 3 8A UBECs, each UBEC powers 2 legs / 6 servos. I have written a basic walking gait to move the hexapod forward, backward, left and right. I’m using […]

I’ve been working on my hexapod, and I’ve spent the last weeks struggling with inverse kinematics. I found a great explanation on this website. I started by measuring the parts of the legs. The legs are made of 3 parts, coxa, femur and tibia. I then copied quite a bit of code from the sketch […]
