BeetleBots Zooming Everywhere!
I’ll probably be teaching a class with WhatWillYouLearn.com on December 10th or 11th. Stay tuned for more details!
Here’s the class description as it stands right now:
BeetleBots Zooming Everywhere!
In just a few hours we’ll take some motors and switches and turn them into living, scampering, skittering BeetleBots! It’s a robot that zooms around your kitchen floor in the cutest/creepiest(?) way you’ve ever seen!
When you’re done, you’ll know how to build more of these little guys (did I just say Holiday Project with family?)
This relatively easy robot project gives great food for thought on the nature of artificial intelligence, robotic mobility and… nah, they’re just awesome to play with!
If you don’t have these skills already, you’ll learn how to use a soldering iron and hot glue gun. But the magic isn’t in the legerdemain, it’s in how we put these little guys together and make them go!
