Dave has been making robots in a different medium than is typical here. I probably can't keep up with the tech discussion, but if you're at all interested in a fun and light hearted robot t-shirt or case for your iphone, check out my Zazzle store. These are the robots of your childhood!

Would love some feedback if you look!

What I think would be fun...

By JoeBTheKing

December 14, 2010

I think we have a lot of talented people here who would all look at a problem different. I think it would be fun for someone to think of a problem that you could solve a million different ways and have everyone take a shot at trying to solve it if they want. Then I think it would be interesting to see all the solutions. If the problem was simple than you could have people try to solve it simpley and straightfoward and others who would think outside the box and over complicate it. It would be like a challenge but the prize would be th

Good news everybody!

I'm new. My name's Cam. I've never built a robot or any electronic circuit but for some reason I'm super-confident that I'll be awesome at it.

I have a little bit of scripting/coding experience, I'm hoping at least some of that translates over to robot building. I'll have a heap of help at least to start off with from a friend of mine, he's never built robots either, or really done much in electronics, but he's an engineer ooh wow

So Im new here...

I have already started my first robot. And as soon as I have got it together to a some what more presentable state I will submit it as a project :)

When deciding what to create as my first robot, I looked at the beginners stuff and thought I could do that, but I still want to be diffrent which is why I am building a 3 legged walker. I'll Hopefully upload a video or two with some photos in the next few hours.

Thanks for reading and enjoy your day.

This is my very first line following robot that is built around ATMEGA8. Construction and circuit are quite simple. Such a name- GOOFY is given because robot movements are somewhat clumsy. But hey! Its still working and doing his job very well! :)

There is two geared DC motors that are controlled using PWM. Tyres are the ones that are used in RC cars. Besides-these have a nifty looking.
