Cybug Scarab Fabrication

IMG_1085_edited.png

You're about to fabricate a electronic-based product, just as a technologist may in a manufacturing company.  The quality of your product is directly dependent on the time and care you take with the product assembly!

​

It's exciting to start, but take your time, and enjoy the creation process and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.   If you have any questions of comments to improve them, please feel free to connect with me with your idea's

​

I hope you enjoy the build and HAVE FUN!!

The operating CYBUG SCARAB behaves as a living organism, with behavior and instinct designed in it’s circuitry.  The robo-organism is nocturnal ( most active at night ) and can be configured to be photo-tropic ( light seeking ) or photo-phobic ( light avoiding ). 

 

A quick adjustment causes the Scarab to behave aggressively as a predator, or timid and slow moving like a herbivore.  No two Scarabs are exactly the same and you will come to recognize the unique characteristics of each!

​

The Scarab is just one member of a new robotic ecosystem which parallels nature in a unique and fascinating manner while educating it’s owners in fundamentals of electronics, robotics, biology, and control systems.
