This is first version of my low cost 3d printed robot arm. It is based on Ikea Tertial lamp. I choose it because it has very good kinematic with using springs to unload servos. So you can use different number of springs to achive diffrent lifting power. Techinacal specification: 5 DOF. Full lenght: 690mm Lifting

Preface My daughter asked me to build her a treasure chest that she could use to store her most valuable things. Obviously she demanded it to have some kind of a locking mechanism so only she could open the box. First thought was to use a keypad but then her grandfather bought her a diary

Story We love our workshop, but it has one downside (or maybe upside) – a large flight of stairs to the gallery. We constantly need to move parts and components between one floor and the other, so we’ve been plotting different ideas: drones, dogs, carrier pigeons and what not, and then it hit us! A

Story Voice-controlled Robot Voice-controlled robot is both hardware and cloud solution in one piece. The main components are: 1. Alexa Skill – to interpret voice commands and translate them to Google Cloud Messaging messages – deployed to Heroku cloud 2. Android application – to receive messages from Google Cloud Messaging and send them over Bluetooth

Introduction The Serial Basic is an easy to use USB to Serial adapter based on the CH340G IC from WCH. It works with 5V and 3.3V systems and should auto install on most operating systems without the need for additional drivers. It’s a great lower cost option to the extremely popular FTDI Basic. The Serial

Introduction: Drinking enough water is very important for our health. Drinking more water can lead to clearer skin, better overall health, improved productivity and brain function, increased energy levels, and even weight loss. In our busy lives, it is really hard to remember to drink enough water. And most of the time we forget to

Story After designing the “Clock Set Date Time” and hearing the suggestion of ArduPic , I thought it would be a good idea and also useful, add a “wake-up alarm.” A small change to the code and adding a few components: Here’s “the Alarm Clock“. Compared to the previous project, I added a buzzer Piezzo,

We all are familiar with dice and often played LUDO or SANP SIDI (Snake & Ladders) game by using dice. Dice is a squire type solid box which contains 6 different numbers on all of its sides. We throw dice on a surface to get a random number while playing the games. In this project

You must have seen automatic door openers in shopping malls and other commercial buildings. They open the door when someone comes near the entrance and close it after sometime. A number of technologies are available to make such kinds of systems like PIR sensors, Radar sensors, Laser sensors, Infrared sensors, etc. In this arduino based project, we have

After designing this line follower robot using arduino uno, I have developed this computer controlled robot. It can be controlled via the computer and we can use specific keyboard keys to move it. It runs over serial communication which we have already discussed in our previous project – PC Controlled Home Automation. Components Required Arduino UNO DC
