Hi
I hope I'll find some guidance here.
I'm a computer engineer and I want to make an hexapod (6 legged robot).
I have no special knowledge about robotics.
What should I do ? where do I start?

Try youtube or LEGO Mindstorms
actuators anon, actuators.
sorry I should have mentioned that I made one with 3 servos controlling each leg. Now I don't know what to do next

Pics? Now hook em' up to power and PWM and write some software to control them

I'm not home right now to take pics.
The problem lies there. How do I pick an optimal way for the robot to move ?

>How do I pick an optimal way for the robot to move
Make it learn how to move with genetic algorithms.

interesting.Mind to expand?
>>7949925
Making a hexapod on your own?
That will require a lot of time.

I've got 1 month

alternating tripod gait. You got inverse kinematics working right?

I've got the inverse kinematics of a single leg. What should I do ?
>>7950011
Implement alternating tripod gait.

Master's thesis: ok

Go back to school and study something useful this time.

the goal is to make it autonomous. Now I need to get it moving. Like I said I've already built one all I need now is to figure out how to make it move properly
