The Ultimate Guide To Building Robots
Hi, I'm Scott
I am working on a site that will be the BEST source for building robots. In fact this site will soon become
The Ultimate Guide To Building Robots.
Currently, this is a site has information on a lot of my robots and robot projects.
But soon I will also be publishing robotics video's and creating guides for building robots like mine! Subscribe to my feed, follow me on Twitter, or go to my FaceBook Fan Page for more information.
Coming Soon ScottsBots.TV!!!
Featured Robot - CRaB
This is a short video of the CRaB robot going through a diagnostic.
Look For Robot Parts at MSC Direct
Often I would be paying $1 for 3 hex screws, this is non-sense. Even at other places specializing in micro-fasterners you can often get a better deal by buying through places specializing in selling parts to manufacturers. The place I go for these is MSC Direct. Wheels, Fasteners, Raw Materials, Etc.

Electronics I've Built
Here's some various electronics I've built over the years to help me with my robotics.
Ubuntu Robotics - Part 1
The last few robots I’ve had to set-up the exact same thing, the exact same way, and I thought I would share it. With the combination of these steps you can have a robot like Feynman Jr. 2 (Jr2) or Feynman 7 (F7).
Added New Robot
I've added a new robot Feynman Jr. 2. The goal of this robot is to follow me around.
Book Review - Robot Building For Beginners
A great introduction to robotics. If you're going to start building robots, get this book today!
Stereo Vision with Ubuntu
I've long had a problem with using two web cameras at the same time in Windows and Linux. But now I've solved the problem and have Stereo Vision on my robot, Feynman 7.
Need A Robot Brain?
Of all the things I wish I could have purchased off-the-shelf, it would have been a brain.
Computer Vision Book / Face Recognition
Another idea that I've been working on is creating a book that's about computer vision.
Coming Soon A New Robotics Book
I am in the process of creating another book on robotics programming. Simpler, easier to read and use, including a DVD with all the source code and a Virtual Machine.
Want to Build A Robot in 10 minutes?
I was thinking of making a kit and assembly instruction video on building a robot in 10 minutes.
