This is the build video of 4B, a robot i started working on last year but had to stop because of the other projects that I had. This robot has 4-legs with a total of 12DOF, and what's special about it is that it can fold in a 6cm diameter ball!

    When your plan fails blame the programmers That’s the robotics motto

    This is my favourite project of yours and I'm so glad to see it's back! Can't wait to see the results!

    That's literally an electric bakugan. Or a transformer. Or a quadpedal spherical robot.
  • @ryanmalin

    5:54 "Make sure my type casting is on point" I felt that. As a Java programmer, I felt that.
  • @videomatico1

    When he said the robot is almost the same size as a baseball, I imagined someone mistaking this thing for a baseball a smacking it with a bat
