Final Project

There’s a machine I’d like to build. I applied for a huge EU grant with five other university and industrial partners, but I have a pretty good feeling we won’t get the money. Here’s the beast:

The full-size machine is meant to be big enough to carry two people on a multiple-day mission at depths up to about 20m. As designed it will weigh 7 tonnes. It will walk on six legs and use its remaining two to carry pincers or other tools.

This is obviously more than I can chew for the FabAcademy, but what I’m thinking I’d like to try to build is a model version of the machine as a testing platform for the leg kinematics that the eventual full size machine would need.

This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process.

Research

There are plenty of crab or spider robots literally running around. I’ll do a literature review and paste it here.

2D and 3D Modeling

Add here your modeling and design.
