Reading Time: 2 minutesRolling robot transformed into a zip lining contraption Arduino Team — November 11th, 2019 MOREbot is an Arduino-powered educational robotic platform that’s currently available for pre-order. While the base kit is geared (literally and figuratively) towards building a small two-motor robot, MORE Technologies CEO Canon Reeves shows off how it can be reconfigured into an […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteCompetition robot picks up (almost) all the balls Arduino Team — November 9th, 2019 For the Warman Design and Build Competition in Sydney last month, Redditor ‘Travman_16 and team created an excellent Arduino-powered entry. The contest involved picking up 20 payloads (AKA balls) from a trough, and delivering them to a target trough several feet […]

Reading Time: 2 minutesBaby Cheetah is a mini, MIT-inspired quadruped robot Arduino Team — October 29th, 2019 Since we can’t all have the MIT Mini Cheetah at home, Jegatheesan Soundarapandian decided to make his own version — measuring just 23 cm x 9 cm x 9 cm. As shown in the video below, the aptly named “Baby Cheetah” […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesUCSD engineers developed electrically-controlled soft robot actuators Arduino Team — October 12th, 2019 Engineers at the University of California San Diego have come up with a way to build soft robots that are compact, portable and multifunctional without the requirement for compressed air. Instead, they’re using a system of tubular actuators made out of heat-sensitive […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesWatch this guitarist perform an acoustic set with his own robotic drummer Arduino Team — October 11th, 2019 As shown in the video below, Tristan Calderbank is a very talented singer and guitar player, but what’s perhaps most interesting about his performance is the percussion section. Instead of a person (or an entire band) standing […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesThese LEGO linkage walkers wander under Arduino control Arduino Team — September 27th, 2019 YouTuber Oracid1 has developed a unique family of four-legged robots, dubbed “FiveBarQuads.” The quadrupeds all feature ultrasonic sensing for navigation and a body made out of LEGO components — and as seen in the first video below, his latest (and largest) […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteRobo-snake slithers across the ground under Arduino control Arduino Team — September 13th, 2019 What has a dozen servos, a WiFi camera, and an Arduino Mega for a brain? Nevon Projects’ snake-bot, of course! This impressive robot uses a total of 12 servos for locomotion and can travel across a variety of surfaces under the […]
