We have developed a simple six-axis biped robot system to be used as teaching material for undergraduate university students wishing to study an intelligent robot. This system enables students to fabricate the entire robot system by themselves as they understand each individual step and study level from mechanical design to programming languages. The components used to fabricate the robot system are very affordable allowing more students access to the project. This chapter will present the details of the step-by-step study scheme using basic circuit theory, the six-axis biped robot, and lectures.
