NXT Hand Puppet

Very cute and funny :)

GBC#5

This short GBC (or Great Ball Contraption) really caught my attention because of all the cool mechanical solutions and the NXT-Driven robot arm. It's really cool.


(earlier portions of this are here, and are absolutely amazing considering that there is no NXT or electronic intelligence involved. Another great mechanical implementation is here).

Mechnically (and, clearly, in terms of programming) this individual has done an amazing job. But even beyond that, they have a look that inspires.  Here is a user that manages to combine all those facets... and does it really well.
This robot was made by akiyuki.

Building Instructions

Great ones in the nxtprograms.com and at http://mindstorms.lego.com/en-us/support/buildinginstructions/8547/Bonus%20Model%201.aspx
For those of you that have HiTechnic sensor there are a few models to build at http://www.hitechnic.com/models
And look at www.nxtprograms.com for stuff for NXT 1.0 and 2.0
Another site but with a little more complicated stuff, http://mynxt.matthiaspaulscholz.eu/index.html might need
some extra pieces
Also another random site: http://robotics.bendettelli.com
