The Octobot is a 3D printed soft robot developed by Harvard University researchers.

About the project:

The octobot is powered by a chemical reaction and controlled with a soft logic board. A reaction inside the bot transforms a small amount of liquid fuel (hydrogen peroxide) into a large amount of gas, which flows into the octobot’s arms and inflates them like a balloon. A microfluidic logic circuit, a soft analog of a simple electronic oscillator, controls when hydrogen peroxide decomposes to gas in the octobot.

Create a team Twitter account and follow the steps below: 1). Track the tag #omgrobots so that it can introduce you to keen FIRST members. Teams tag their posts with this when talking about the game or their robots, so this can introduce you to the other FRC teams out there! 2). Get involved in the discussions and you will get to know other teams. Twitter is a great place to do this since teams often post pictures of their prototypes and CAD designs. 3). Use Twitter to communicate at competitions. You can also quickly relay scores when at competition too! 4). Update your fans, friends, parents, sponsors and teammates via Twitter – a fast, simple, and extremely easy way to get pictures and information to large groups of people.

What are you waiting for? Get your tweet on! (@TheGirlsofSteel) Thank you for the submission, FIRST Team 2809.

Reblog if you are on a FIRST Robotics Team! (and put your team number if you would like to!)

I would love to get to know all of my lovely FIRST-ers out there!
