(Phys.org) —A resourceful thinker who likes to learn as he goes, Kevin Ochs started out on a project with the intention of brushing up skills in C++ programming. He has come up with something quite interesting as a result. He has a six-legged robot that talks about its progress while navigating obstacles. "This robot project was a mental exercise for me," he said, on "My Raspberry Pi Robot Called Charlotte," his Web page. "It had been several years since I had done anything with C++ and I needed to shore up that skill set."
