iHexapod- Hexapod running on iPhone

Posted by Kenil
This started as a final year project at Uni to create a control algorithm for a 3DOF Hexapod, which included Forward kinematics(6DOF or body orientation, 3DOF for locomotion) and Inverse kinematics (determine each legs orientation).While this project was in action its creator was working on an app for the iPhone, so as to run the bot.To my knowledge making it the first robot to use an iPhone as its brain.
In this video the bot is controlled via a custom iPhone app. It uses a onboard accelerator, controlling the movement of the bot.
