The document describes a project to design an eight-legged spider robot using a Theo Jansen linkage mechanism. The robot would use two DC motors connected to gears to drive the eight legs in synchrony. An Arduino microcontroller and RF module would allow the robot to be remotely controlled with forward, backward, left and right movement. The linkage mechanism is intended to provide multidirectional motion to the legs and allow the robot to traverse irregular terrain for applications such as hazardous inspections.
