Classes / Young Engineers / Young Engineers 2: Vibrating Walker
Buzz buzz - this robot walks using the power of vibration! Learn how we can use a motor and gears to build a travelling robot. Stick around until the end of the video to watch Dan & Lena supersize their vibrating walker by making different kinds of "brush bots."
Want to make your own brush bot? You'll need the following materials:
1 Toothbrush
1 Motor (here)
1 3V Battery (here)
1 Battery case with on/off switch (here)
Diagonal cutters (or any other tool that can cut the toothbrush head from the handle) (here)
Non-conductive tape - we used Duct tape in this video, electrical tape works too!
Wire stripper (optional but highly recommended) (here)
Double-sided foam tape (optional) (here)
