Can you do the worm?
Wednesday, October 4th, 2006
One of my first robots was a wheeled robot that moved sort of like an inch worm. Well, graduate film student, Josh Greenbaum, stumbled across a video of the robot and asked if it could play a sock as the lead character in a movie he is making. Unfortunately, given the design of the robot (specifically, the wheels), placing a sock over it would compromise the worm-like movement Josh needs. I’d told him I’d ask our readers because I know the NXT community loves challenges.
So does anybody have any design ideas or is up for the challenge of creating a worm sock bot to star in Josh’s film? You’d probably want to keep it small to fit in a sock and have a motor to control each of its three joints.
