Make your own fighting robot dinosaur !

The Robokiller is intended to move in a lifelike way. In essence the user is the brain of the system. We have avoided any kind of control system or electronics. There are no menus of commands to choose or automatic algorithms. The lunging head-neck-jaws is simply 'fired' by pressing the trigger on the controller and the Robokiller can move forwards, backwards, left and right using a skid-steering system that is controlled with two simple slider switches.
This approach follows the principles of biomimicry:
"....Biomimicry or biomimetics is the examination of nature, its models, systems, processes, and elements to emulate or take inspiration from in order to solve human problems..."
