Tiny Bot

I was off on one of my long "How did I end up here?" Google adventures and found this "one cubic inch" robot.

Unfortunately, there were no construction details because the page was about making conductive adhesive (used to connect the three batteries on the 'bot). An instructable found here -> http://bit.ly/AgVekN

Anyway, I thought it kind of neat and y'all might like it.

Time to call it a night.

Update - Found a link to the 'bot itself! -> http://bit.ly/z7GJkL

Agreed, a fun little bot.

The posted video (on Instrucatbles) didn't work for me. I'd like to have seen this little bot in action.

Thanks for the link.

That is cool. I would not want to try to build that as I think I would go blind trying.

Way cute! Although I don't know that I would have the dexterity necessary to put one of those together. :surprise:

Thanks for sharing!

Chad George (onerobot.org), who makes the tBot and works with Hanno Sanders with the tBot and 12Blocks, was at UPENE last summer and brought along a pair of his robots he is building to play with swarming (and soccer). They are like 2" solid aluminum cubes, machined with openings for wheels and such and packed with electronics. They were very impressive.

I keep checking his site to see if they are ever going to come up for sale. I have a couple of his tBots and wouldn't mind having a couple of the mini-bots.

Chad's on the forums every so often....maybe he or Hanno will see this and could provide more information.

Building that would be a major challenge... my fingers are that big!!! =:-}
