Mark Norwood<\/a> is\u00a0a beginner at hacking and making, so he says, but that hasn’t stopped him from taking on this project to take an off-the-shelf robot spider and control it from a Raspberry Pi. He took two of the spider kits, split them in half so that he could control the two sides independently and added a Raspberry Pi Zero W and the controller board from CamJam EduKit 3<\/a>.\u00a0He got it following lines and detecting objects as well as responding to remote control and he’s documented the entire process over on his blog – so head over there to read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
