Outerspace
The “Outerspace” robot consists of three rods that are connected by joints and driven by four servomotors. The front-end rod is equipped with photo-sensors that enable it to register brightness and movement. Capacitive sensors on all three rods let “Outerspace” react to touch. The evaluation of environmental sensations and the issuance of commands for subsequent reactions are managed by two BX-24 microcontrollers linked to a processor run by custom-written Java software.
