Check out this groovy piece of do-it-yourself arachnid inspired techno-gear. The amazing DIY SpiderBot was engineered at Metalab in Vienna by Daniel Schatzmayr, who apparently has a love for all things with many legs.
The DIY SpiderBot is kind of a misnomer as the servo-driven robot is actually a Hexapod (only has 6 legs). The directions for this DIY robotic spider are quite elaborate, and can be found by hitting the links below.
Implications - For those who love to build their own creations, the SpiderBot is a fun gadget to give a try. This do-it-yourself spider robot offers users endless hours of entertainment, all thanks to creator Daniel Schatzmay himself.
