Tutorials and resources to build your own Arduino controlled robot
From Amazon a sensor night vision webcam 5MP compatible with Raspberry Pi 3/2/B/B+/A/A+ From Sparkfun, the today’s deal is a longwave infrared (LWIR) thermal imaging camera compatible with Arduino and Raspberry Pi A hexapod kit with aluminum body and 3 … 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 →
I’ve been playing over the years with a series of robotic kits including two tracked robots[one, two, three]. The experience of using a robot tank versus a robot on wheels is different for the most part. I like these platforms … 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 →
For some time I have been searching for a simple solution for an autonomous robot able to navigate long distances and avoid obstacles. The conditions are as follows: the navigation system is compatible and can be integrated with Arduino and … Read more →
ufactory released the new uArm Swift Pro robotic arm. The robotic arm is open-source, and as we expected, the arm is controlled by an Arduino Mega 2560 board. Besides the double price compared with the standard version uArm Swift, the … Read more →
Arduino is a good development board for reading data from various sensors and for controlling the robot’s DC motors. Raspberry Pi is a very good Linux computer running ROS. To benefit from both systems, the easiest way is to connect … Read more →
A few weeks ago I started writing a series of tutorials that ease the work of beginners in ROS. The first tutorial was about a template for a publisher node, the second tutorial was about a template for a subscriber … Read more →
I spent more than 20 hours studying and analyzing the best Arduino robot car kits. About Arduino, there is much to say, but the most important thing is why someone would use this board to control a mobile robot. As … Read more →
The applications that run on Raspberry Pi can’t always identify the serial port that belongs to each Arduino board. If we don’t use an identifier for each board, the serial port may change every time we disconnect or connect the … Read more →
