About Adeept 6-Leg Spider Robot
Introduction
Developed based on Arduino, this hexapod robot simulates the movements of 6-feet insects via
programming in the Arduino IDE programming software and controlling 19 servos.
Hexapod robot, or spider robot, is one type of multi-legged robots. The design of this hexapod is
derived from insects in nature, especially principles of their movement. Foot is the motion organ
of insects. Some have 3 pairs of feet with each in the front, middle, and back breast; the feet are
named respectively the frontfoot, midfoot and rear-foot. This hexapod robot is of the similar
structure.
In this robot kit, a complete set of hardware devices are provided as well as example code for
your learning. Also you can write the code for control by yourself if applicable. By programming
the robot, you can control each leg and even each joint of the legs precisely, and truly feel the
thrill and joy of learning and making.
The Adeept Arduino UNO R3 board is used as the core control board for this kit, and an Adeept
32 Channel PWM Drive board for control of 19 servos onside.After assembly, you can see 2 parts,
the hexapod robot and a remote control. They communicate through an NRF24L01 2.4G wireless
communication module on each, which supports data transmission. In the example code
provided, the robot supports 3 working modes: Remote control mode, Automatic obstacle
avoidance mode, Finding light mode. We can use Android APP or remote-control unit
respectively to control the robots. Once powered, it connects with the remote control
successfully; the LED1 on the remote will blink.
When the robot is in remote control mode, the LED2 lights up, and LED3 lights off; when the
robot is in automatic obstacle avoidance mode, the LED3 lights up and the LED2 lights off.; when
the robot is in finding light mode, the LED2 and LED3 both light up.
