BoB the BiPed robot

With simple construction and very low part count you can have your bob up and walking in no time. 

BoB a fun introduction to the world of walking robots for children and adults alike! with simple construction and very low part count you can have your bob up and walking in no time. i've updated recently to include the BoB poser software by robotfreak modified from the fobo poser software just load the arduino code onto the controller and plug in BoB to usb and get posing! it allows a frame by frame sort of capture mode and playback making animations easy

Bill of materials (BOM)

The printed parts for bob can be found in the files section
