It’s now about six years since Star Wars: The Force Awakens first showed us the little spherical robot BB-8, but it’s fair to say that along the way we’ve not lost our collective fascination for rolling-ball robots. There have been plenty of attempts to make a fully-rolling device, but perhaps [Derek Lieber] has a better take on […]

Meet the Mirobot mini industrial robot arm which is capable of delivering incredible versatility, precision and fit into many functions for a home, school, or professional use. Inspired by the famous ABB IRB 6700 industrial robot arm which is utilized in advanced factories around the world, Mirobot was created as a small, affordable, and user-friendly mini industrial robotic arm

Hello Everyone, thank you for showing interest in our project. In this project, we are showing a fully automated robot that sorts fruits and vegetables based on their color. The project happened in the context of the Bruface program and more precisely in the mechatronics 1 course. The Brussels Faculty of Engineering (in short, Bruface)

In this instructable, we will learn to make an XY plotter/ Vertical plotter drawing machine using Arduino. With this very efficient Vertical Drawing machine, We can draw images on different paper sizes, walls, or whiteboards along with printing texts, generating arts and graffiti. Vector images(SVG) are fed to them as input, for printing jpeg and

For all its ability to advance modern society in basically every appreciable way, science still has yet to explain some seemingly basic concepts. One thing that still has a few holes in our understanding is the method by which a bicycle works. Surely, we know enough to build functional bicycles, but like gravity’s inclusion into

This is my P-CNC plotter which is laid out and disguised as a quadruped robot. Today, I’d like to share how I made it. It was quite simple, no 3D printer required, just need my meticulousness, care and a little patience. Please check the brief description and how P-Plotter works in the video below before

From the previous projects on this page, you can probably see that I have a deep interest in robotic projects. In one of my previous Instructables, I built a quadruped robot using large heavy-duty servo motors, and this time I decided to try and make a micro version of the quadruped robot that is significantly

If a robot is rideable, is it still a robot or is it a vehicle? We would argue that if it rolls on standard automobile-style wheels or even tank tracks, it is a vehicle. But James Bruton’s eight-wheeled robot snake bike is quite clearly something else. This “vehicle” started as a small functional model that
This snake robot is large enough to ride upon Continue Reading
I made an Arduino quadruped robot “by-hand,” meaning without a kit or a 3D printer. It walks using a “long step” gait, which can be very smooth and natural looking. It didn’t quite come out the way I wanted though. However, to make my robot unique, I had the idea to create a skimming-type motion

[Neumi] over on Hackaday.IO wanted a simple-to-use way to drive stepper motors, which could be quickly deployed in a wide variety of applications yet to be determined. The solution is named Ethersweep, and is a small PCB stack that sits on the rear of the common NEMA17-format stepper motor. The only physical connectivity, beside the motor,
