Abstract
A key to the advancement of robotics is to create more complex, flexible and sturdier robot structures and controllers. In order to accomplish this task it is crucial to first develop a 3D model that allows to make a robot well-designed and easily reconfigurable, where one can change its structure, add and remove degrees of freedom of legs, create and simulate new patterns of locomotion, and other adjustments. This research demonstrates the development of the embedded hexapod robot Aduka, a mobile robot powered by an embedded system. Using BeagleBone Black, other single boards and an operating system FreeBSD it can be remotely controlled by computers and mobile devices for hazardous environment inspections.
