Hello everyone!
My newest robot is a little out of my ordinary but still keeps with my robot pet theme. The code has evolved from K@ to K9 to Wall-E and now resides in my Cookie Monster.
Watch the video: You Tube
The code had been modified to give cookie monster a realistic walking motion. The frame that i had modified is a Mike Disc Throwing robot. I used the legs/torso from this robot because it had a walking motion mechanism. The motors were removed and replaced with GWS Modified Servos. The arms are controlled by standard GWS servos, as well as the head.
The circuit is the EZ-B Bluetooth Robot Controller: http://www.ez-robot.com
The programming is done through EZ-Builder: http://www.ez-robot.com/EZ-Builder

My dad wants me to try to make an autonomous duck that has a long list of functions. Im just getting into robotics and if you could tell me where i could learn to program that would be great. Send me a PM if you have any tips and all help will be apreciated.

if only there was an instructable about it.....
hmmm....
i wonder who could help....
could you at least give me some pointers on how to build one. i already have a couple arduinos, so that would be the prefurable, but it doesn't really matter.
anything would help
