RepBug , a 3d printable , mini hexapod !
========================================

**Some features:**

- open source design & code
- parametric (modelled in openscad)
- relatively cheap (<200 euros, all included, hopefully)
- showcase the advantages of 3d printing over traditional CNC methods

**Some more details :**

- muscle: HXT900 micro servos ->9 grams each (X18 for the legs, some more for head etc perhaps)
- brain : RaspberryPi or BeagleBone -> 30 g (this might change, as initial experimentation will be done on Arduino)
- skeleton: small 3d printed parts (PLA plastic), sturdy yet light ! -> 10 g per leg
- senses:
- sight:
for simplicity, I will start with a ping ultrasonic sensor
further down the line : small cheap chinese webcam , without casing ->3g
- touch:
not fully decided yet, but I will be doing experiments with pressure sensors in the feet

What you fill find in this repository:

**Cad**
All the openscad files necessary to print the hexapod

**Code**
the python "host" program / mini server (more on this later)
the arduino/c++ firmware (and various experiments)
