Update: Strobe studies - pretty crap as I did not have a strobe, but had to use LED's. But they showed m that Lil Jumpa is lifted up to the height where he's axle / hip is floating in mid air. Not much, but I consider it a jump, for a beginning :)

In principle - if he was strong enough - it would mean that he could go over obstacles of heights up till that point, which is pretty ok.

.. OK, I know my "robots" start to look a little the same lately.

It is a part of a series, trying out some stuff :)

The Dead Kangaroo Fishand The Headhunter where before this.

This time I went for speed & light weight over power, and interlocked arms, only one motor.

Conclusions are many!

Good info, I know :)I will make better info once I get a better result ;)

All of these creatures of yours terrify me. I can just imagine waking up in the middle of the night and hearing something rustling in the dark room, then lightning flashes and I see one of these things scurrying across the floor at me. Oh god :)

Nice Frits,very Artsy

Nice Frits,

very Artsy pictures, how about putting reflective stickers on the legs - might work if you want more contrast - 

personally I like the black and white one and the one above it ... kindof Giger'esque

way scientific

Wow, this research is way better than just sticking a measure thingey in a motor circuit! I like it and I hope you will develop even further.

I am interested in both methods AND products!
