THE HAND
*Click clack click clack* That sounds ominously like fingernails....It's THE HAND, my second entry into the spooktacular challenge. The hand was inspired by GhostInside's project, Thing, and I decided to build my own, slightly smaller version. THE HAND walks with the basic quadruped leg design, repeated on each side of the motor, then doubled to create four moving "fingers" to propel it forward. the fingers are positioned all at different attachment points on the motors. The NXT intelligent brick is pulled along on a cart, as the hand does not have any convenient and sturdy connection points for it. For fun, I added a thumb to the design. With an ultrasonic sensor attached, it could guard candy on halloween night (which sadly is on a Monday).

  • Nice work on THE HAND. Will you check out my entry once it is posted, (It's been in moderation for about a week). Maybe you could try making a larger one with the NXT attached. Then you don't need the car. 4 STARS.

  • OK NXTein1996, I will. I wonder why no projects have been posted! Maybe it's that the mods are judging the spooktacular challenge. By the way everyone, I have the project I mentioned here ready, but it's not bieng posted, as well as a new zamor tank. Bye!

    I did re-submit my bat so you can see it. I think it would've been a great entry if it was posted in time.
