New BugBot and a Challenge from the Past

Carol Lynn Hazlett is making a new Bug Bot (and I am following her lead!), which is a copy of the old Milford Instruments' Stampbug. It is shown below, along with her new version. The bot is 3D printed and running with a Parallax Propeller FLiP and other updated technology.

3D printed, with Propeller FLiP, with LaserPING))) "wiskers"!
She printed one for me too!

This got me searching and I found this again... It is a challenge from an earlier day with some fun ideas from an old Parallax Forums thread - here. This video, posted in September of 2009, shows a modified Stampbug (the original version). It was the winner of the Trident Gymnastics STAMP Olympiad - Loughborough - LUCIFER (Loughborough University Collective Intelligence for Enhanced Robotics) Gymnastics event. Carol, we gotta try this!

Meeting a Friend in Seattle!

Robothon T-shirts, the Parallax Forums, Facebook, email and a great love of all things robotic made us friends across 2400 miles. Yesterday, I met one of my robotics’ heros - builder, programmer, author, and educator Carol Lynn Hazlett, and her husband in Seattle. What a treat!

And she brought toys...
