Summary

In summary, we explored how to make an instrument with a robotics kit, and we remixed the idea of a robotics kit to make a musical instrument. There is great power in taking something we all know and love and trying to make a robotic version of it. We explored some new build techniques by using some of the basic elements that are found in the kit to create new ideas, such as the guitar slider.

Finally, we explored the coding by taking what is a simple coding program but understanding the many different ways we can take some simple code and make it work to our personal liking.

In the next chapter, you will explore another aspect of life to see how you can adapt ideas taken from nature to build a robot with a killer instinct, by making a scorpion.
