Tutorials and resources to build your own Arduino controlled robot
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 →
Arduino is a great development board for reading data from various sensors and controlling the robot’s DC motors. Raspberry Pi is good at running ROS on Linux. So, we can benefit from both systems to build smart robots. The easiest … 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 →
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 →
This guide will walk you through how to install and setting up an Arduino board to work with Raspberry Pi 3 having in common ROS Kinetic. To walk through this guide, you must have a Raspberry Pi 3 with ROS … Read more →
