HullPixelBot: A robot pixel from Hull
These are our elite "Red Nose Robots" being drilled for the Rob Miles Lecture in Rhyme all about Pixelbots.
This is the robots being used to display pixels. If an event is open, you can take control of a Hull Pixelbot here.

Hull Pixelbot Fan Art
I've been playing around making some "fan art" for the Hull Pixelbot. Here's my first attempt. You can click through the image above for a high quality version you can print out and stick on your wall.

Hull Pixelbot on Thingiverse
The HullPixelBot design files are also on Thingeverse. The design now includes provision for pixel holders for the top and rear of the robot and a holder for a distance sensor and three light detectors. I'll be updating the construction details and software samples for these new additions.
I'm also working on a set of drivers for motors and sensors which are coming along nicely. They'll be posted here soon. They will allow you to make the robot move in curves and also give precise control of robot positioning.
These are the multi-coloured prototype parts.
