 Ben Heck’s Hackbot wars, part 3

by John_A

The Ben Heck Show - Episode 251 - Ben Heck's Hackbot Wars Part 3: Final Fight

Find out who will win in the final Hackbotz showdown between the Death-A-Nator, Ghandi-Bot and Mr. Pointy? Ben’s weapon of choice is an “intimidation knife” that’s attached with 3D printed parts, but how useful will that be? Then he reveals the code he used for the drone controller board on his Hackbot. We also discover what Felix has been up to, with a step-by-step guide to pairing a PlayStation 4 controller and an Intel Edison module via Bluetooth. (He, too, will reveal his secret Hackbotz weapon, by the way.) In this episode we also have a research update for a future build: Ben introduces a TI Launchpad that will be used in an upcoming project and demonstrates how the light sensor functions with the pnboard LCD display. Would you have developed a Hackbot differently? Or have you been making your own robots? Share your creations and ideas with The Ben Heck Show team over on the element14 Community.
