As Compared to the wheeled vehicles, legged robots are more capable to move across rough surface. The objective of this project was to design and implement a legged robot with RC servo motors operated by IR remote control. The robot should be able to walk straight ahead and make turns. Each leg of the robot was made up of servos. For operating servos we are using Arduino Mega smart board. This board would convert the number to a pulse-width modulated signal. Depending on the width of the pulse, a servo would rotate between 0 to 270 degrees. The structure of the robot was designed in such a way that it was used to coordinate motion of legs because it guaranteed that the robot would not fall over while walking. To save power, legs of the robots were designed such that they could lock up in a stand-up position without consuming any power.
