Togolese Robot Built Mostly From Old TVs
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Tuesday, 13 of April , 2010 at 3:25 am
This is pretty cool: Sam Todo, who lives in the Togolese Republic in Africa (here), managed to construct a bipedal walking robot out of mostly old TV parts. It’s got a pretty nice gait, too, especially for something built from scratch. Somebody should send this guy some actual robot parts and see what he comes up with…

Very cool. He’s using an opposed mechanism; the kind they used on older toy bots. This demonstrates that you don’t always have to reinvent the wheel, so to speak.
