I made use of Smart Tank Chassis in the past 4 projects and I wanna do something very different. After searching in google and consider different stuffs for a couple of days, I found the Robot Arm Set. It looks awesome! It provides servos, servo wheels and extension wires so that I can save more […]

Although it is great controlling the robot arm with computer or mobile phone, I think using joystick is also cool, so I’ve bought a joystick shield and make a new project. This joystick shield is compatible with Arduino. It also support Nokia 5110 LCD module, nRF24L01 wireless module and Bluetooth module. It should be fun

Growing basil is great, but do you know what’s even better? Having an autonomous basil farm! As the saying goes: “never spend ten minutes doing something by hand, when you could spend 10 hours failing to automate it”. Although I may be bad at gardening, something I am good at is enthusiastically trying to solve

Controlling a robotic arm to pick up and drop objects is difficult enough, without IoT it would be near impossible to do this remotely. Things used in this project Hardware components Arduino MKR1000 × 1 Software apps and online services MATLAB Arduino IDE Hand tools and fabrication machines Laser cutter (generic) Story Introduction I really

This project answers to a need I had: a third hand that holds a camera while I perform a test and takes photos/videos (useful when you’re stuck at the lab late at night, and suddenly need a photographer). The downside to a robotic arm was obvious – It needs to be programmed, and it is

I have constructed a basic Arduino robot arm using 3 servos that cost me £15 in total plus a couple of hours in time to build and it’s very simple that I think anyone can replicate and build this. I already had the Arduino Duemilanove ATMEGA328, some foamboard, tools and glue. The robot arm has

So the arm is wired into Arduino as per the previous post, Arduino: Modifying a Robot Arm and hopefully this has worked. In this next part I alter the Arduino sketch slightly and write the first Processing sketch to test control of the arm – video at the bottom. To control the robot arm we’ll
