    Jason Stewart Presents In S.T.E.M Classes

    Jason Stewart began building robots over 2 years ago and this soon advanced into building more complex robots such as this six-footed hexapod robot kit. This hexapod robot kit included everything you need to build a remote-controlled robot.  The round body symmetry makes this a very unique hexapod walker.  The three DOF (degree of freedom) leg design provides the flexibility required to walk in any direction.  The robot uses servos for the legs.  The combo kit included everything needed to make a functional robot including rechargeable batteries.  This hexapod robot is one of the most sophisticated walking robots.  It's truly amazing to see in action.

    During all of Mr. Fawks's S.T.E.M classes, Jason shared out his experience and his amazing Hexapod Robot.  As students watched, Jason demonstrated all of the capabilities of this programmable robot.  The robot walked low, high and then as if it were in grass.  The robot waved, tried to fly unsuccessfully, and then fell asleep.  Upon awakening, the robot proceeded to dance.
