November 2009: This simple hexapod robot can walk and reverse-turn using just one motor. It can detect obstacles using the ultrasonic sensor. The programming is really simple: the robot steps forward until the Ultrasonic Sensor measures detects a nearby object, then it reverse the motor direction and a clever mechanism allows the backward-turn maneuvre, driving just one row of legs. On the right, you can see the mechanism that does the trick.
