The mePed robot is an awesome little open source quadruped robot which allows anyone to build their very own walking robot with no prior knowledge in robotics.
The mePed robot was designed by Spierce Technologies to help beginners as well as more advanced robot enthusiasts get into the exciting world of robotics. Out of the box, the mePed is pre-programmed with a simple set of commands that allow you to make the robot move around the room, wave, and dance. With a little bit of extra programming, you can make the mePed navigate mazes, avoid obstacles, or anything else you can imagine. Everything about the mePed is open source so you can hack it, remix it, and reprogram it to make it unique and your own!
The mePed Complete kit includes everything needed to assemble and start having fun with your very own mePed Quadruped Robot! From the high quality wood pieces and fasteners that make up the body of the mePed to the custom printed circuit board, pre-programmed Arduino controller, Ultrasonic Range Sensor, and IR Remote Control.
