Tutorials and resources to build your own Arduino controlled robot
In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the rosserial communication to publish the ranges of three HC-SR04 sensors, including: 1.Three ultrasonic sensors and Arduino. 2.How to write the ROS node on Arduino and publish the ranges of the … Read more →
In this tutorial, you will learn how to get started with your Garmin (Qwiic) LIDAR-Lite v4 LED, including: 1. How to connect the LIDAR-Lite v4 to Arduino. 2. How to use parameters of the sensor. 3. The operational detection range … Read more →
In this tutorial, you will learn how to build an obstacle detection and avoidance robot with Arduino and three HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors. The robot is a low-cost mobile platform with two drive wheels and a rear caster. It includes three … Read more →
Obstacle detection is applicable to any robot that moves from an initial position to a goal position avoiding any obstacle in its path. The process of detecting obstacles is applied for a variety of robots, including a mobile robot and … Read more →
I have written three articles so far with reference to the design, electronics, programming, and assembly of the RoboBioca robot. This is the fourth article of the series and I will describe the whole project. List of RoboBioca project articles: … Read more →
The beginning of 2019 found me working to build a platform for promoting sea buckthorn organic juice. The first finished part of the platform was a 3D printed robotic claw. This claw is attached to a 6-axis robotic arm SainSmart. … Read more →
If you’ve come to this article, you’re probably at the same point as I was before I made my stepper motor move without noise, vibration or jump steps. That’s why in this article, I will provide a sufficient level of … Read more →
In this tutorial, I provide enough level of depth to be informed about how to control servo motors with Arduino. I use PWM software and hardware resources because this is the right way to control one or more servo motors. … Read more →
A robotic arm may seem complicated to be built and controlled. It involves teaching how to program a microcontroller to control some servo motors for repetitive tasks. But you can learn to do it quickly using robotic arm kits. I’ve … Read more →
A few days ago I bought a three-color tower light with buzzer for visual and audible alerts. And because I’m a big kid, I thought to build as the first application a game of lights in the style of a … Read more →
