Ok I saw nothing in here so I went looking to see if anyone had made any tripod robots.. the closest thing I got where these three cute little guys called " Swash bots" here are the three video's hopefuly I linked them properly if not you can see them at the creators website at http://www.Crabfu.com

Hey sorry, got busy, then forgot to post in here :)

Thanks for making room for tripod robots! And thanks for posting about swashbots. Hopefully we'll see more 3 legged robots poping up here :)

I'm thinking of making an "autonomous" swashbot or a very smal one, but now I need to know if there is a controller of some sort which could be programmed easily (total noob)
and what works better the T configuration of the legs or the Y (so v1 versus v2/v3) the small one would be rc but I guess a selfcontrolled version needs to be bigger for a controller and extra sensor and bigger battery.

I'm considering to use this for my (don't know how its called..., but its something for school for my science classes, the subject is open but has to use either math, chemistry, biology or physics..., know what I mean?)

maybe it would be smart to start with a radiocontrolled version and then make/program something to make it easier to control (some software wich implements the swash movement directly to the sticks, difficult to explain..., english is not my mother language...)

hope crabfu and others can help me out :D
