Hi all,

I’ve been working on my first real robot last week-end and wanted to share it. It’s a simple quadruped arduino robot controlled by serial (via USB). Videos can be viewed on my blog : http://blog.joomun.org/2012/09/09/arduino-quadruped-robot/

The robot structure has been created with cheap mecanno clone

IR control has been added, i'll update the blog later.

Hello friends!
I look for example code for Ardunio and a 360 ° servo for studying.
Who can help?

With thanking greetings

Gerhard

Hello guys ,
so iam new here hope its the right place and im sorry my 1st post is a question  as its my 1st project :D  

ok im doing a project of a robot driven by man with grippers

so basments needs 2 big motors i use for them those drivers

Whenever there is a shadow, somewhere is light.

The Party Lumibot is a remote controllable and autonomous lamp-bot that is somekind of desktop-robot. It consists of white and pink LEDs that are controlled from an Arduino. The pink LEDs are prepared with shrink-tube to get water resistant and submarine able. The head is composed of seven transparent one-way plastic cubs. The body is a 1.5L PET bottle filled with water. Controlled via remote control through a IR sensor to the microcontroller.

Setup can be made to automatically sweep in X and Y direction or controlled manually using the GUI. Last link is fitted with a force sensing resistor to detect obstacles. It is always perpendicular to the datum plane. On contact with obstacle (my hand in the video), it changes direction in the Z axis. The location of the obstacle is recorded and shown on the MATLAB GUI. Resources: Seeeduino Mega1280, MATLAB, x4 Hitec servomotors and 1 force sensing resistor.

Hi

I tried to build a photovore using and arduino and tested it via usb cable,so far so good the system worked as intended as soon as i plug my battery via the dc connector the servo worked but extremly slow why?

Hi there LMR, here is another one of our projects, as promised. :)
This is Xylomatron. It is a robot that you can play a game similar to "Simon Says" but with a xylophone interface. Basically, it does play a note and expect you to repeat it, if you succeed it adds another note to the previous sequence and expect you to do the same. Therefore the game gets harder at each level, depending on your memory.
When you fail, it gets quite angry thinking "The puny human couldn't memorize X notes" (it does really trace it in fact :D)

Open Electronics‘ staff were looking for a common and standard hardware platform usable on different robots they were working on. Their goal was to find a single platform that had to provide power supply to the microcontroller, it had to provide stabilized voltage for the servos, and, finally, it had to be equipped with an obstacle detector and with an IR receiver.

Having chosen Arduino as the target core board, they developed an ad-hoc shield meeting all these requirements, whose detailed description can be found here, together with the BOM and a lot of source code.

Interface between MATLAB and Arduino microcontroller to calibrate servo.

The Seeeduino Mega 1280 is used in this case.

Problem:Servo does not center accurately and extends beyond 180 degrees.

Solution:Identify error margin and apply correction in MATLAB
