Flexbot design

Design overview hardware

Each "leg" of the flexbot consists of 3 actuators.

• An angled DC motor to control the wheel.
• Two linear actuators to control the motion of the robot's body.

Each of these actuators is controlled by a μ-processor board (Teensy 3.2). The Teensy controls the actuators either directly or via a motor driver and receives feedback from the actuators encoder signals.
