My Bioloid

[acy.stapp]

I have uploaded some shots of my bioloid. It started out named "beetle dozer" but it's final form is more of a duck-ape.

Here's one of it standing and peering forward into the void.




The head with an untested shroud to help improve resolution for detecting line edges and reading barcodes.



Here's a picture of a wire guard to protect the wiring harness. It can be taken mostly off without having to remove the CM-5.



Here's a bottom view showing the construction in more detail.



I am programming it to wander around my house following tape lines and sing different songs in different rooms.

Cool.

When I saw your top pic I immediately thought of this robot.

Make sure and watch the vids if you've not seen it.

Thanks for the link. I'd seen one of those videos and it did kind of inspire me to putting the legs + wheels together. Mine have active wheels so the legs are more of an active suspension instead of driving the robot forward. I'm going to try combining a walking gait with wheeled movement to get him going something more than slow
