This six-legged Insectbot Hexa has 3 high quality 9g micro servos and takes four AAA batteries, giving it the power to walk steadfastly no matter where it goes.
It's clever too, with advanced code that makes it smarter in motion, and gives it excellent capability in obstacle avoidance. However, that doesn't mean the code is more difficult to read - you can still program your Insectbot with the graphical language, Ardublock, and spend time tweaking it from head to toe. Improvisations and hackings are warmly welcomed - we'd love to see more diversified Insectbots!
The heart of Insectbot is the 'world's smallest Bluno', a.k.a. Beetle. Deriving its core notion from minimalism without compromising functionality, Bluno Beetle comes with an Atmel Atmega328 @16MHz clock time and has several interfaces: 4 digital pins and 4 analog pins.
To make it even more user-friendly, it is compatible with Micro USB so that direct programming and testing is no longer a headache. Select 'Arduino UNO (tools >board > Arduino UNO' in Arduino IDE. The ATmega328 comes pre-burned with a bootloader that allows you to upload any new code that is applicable to Arduino UNO.
