Scarab

 

Scarab is a robot that uses two touch sensors to detect obstacles. When its antennas (touch sensor) detect an obstacle, Scarab will first step back and then automatically execute a two-step manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle. The manoeuvre is a combination of "left turn", "right turn", "reverse" or "stop". TheScarab Robot can be configured with different sets of movements. 

The kit comes complete with two sets of differently designed legs, which move in their own distinct way. Its size is approximately 175mm x 145mm x 85mm. Let the fun begin!
