Hello,

Hi Stephan,

I used Honeywell FS series force sensors coupled to my own amplifier electronics. I think RS and Farnell stock them.

How are you getting on with your hexapod design? any pictures?

Matt.

re: force sensors
Hi,

the mechanical things are almost finished (One prototype leg is already working with inverse kinematics), I think in a month or so I can send you the first pictures. Now I'm thinking a lot about the problems which will appear when I have to tell 6 legs how to move together.

The sensors I want to include when the robot is walking, so I can first focus an the balance behaviors etc.

Thanks you for beeing so frank with your knowledge about all the things!
