  • yeah the speed of the robot arm is awesome!! some videos that other ppl do , the movement is much more slow..... can u tell me technically why yours is much more fast moving the servos than the others?. thanks :D

  • I'm not exactly sure why the arm is faster then others you have seen. I was having a problem with the speed and overall stability of the arm when I used one power supply with a 1 Amp max. I then measured the amperage of the arm and found it was drawing more then 1 Amp. So I put in another power supply and split up the servos half on each supply. This fixed the stability problems and fully supplied the arm. The servos arn't the most expensive, but more powerful servos do help with the speed.

  • is there any software where we can map all servo and then it will do the job like andriod

    servo bots do.

  • hmm... I'm sure there is something like that out there however it may not work with the arduino microcontroller. I coded a few common routines for the arm and put them in separate procedures, which could be called from my main program. You could do the same if you had common procedures that need to be executed many times.

  • I have been trying to get a robot like this that can be controlled with C++ or Java. Would you consider making one to sell?

  • how did you put multiple servos on one arduino ?i want to knoe because i dont have much money to spend on an arduino and in the end be useless

  • Linux forever!

  • good work very fun

  • Nice..I love working with Arduino....and somehow the Linux book in the background just sort of fits right in... :-)

  • WOW very cool arm man, awesome work.

    Really makes me think about what can be done with the arduino.

  • Hi! Great arm! Im currently doing something similar, except that i will make it programmable by simply moving it (By attaching an extra wire to the servo potentiometer and measure the voltage through analog in)

    This looks great, i hope you don't mind that i get a little inspired by this :)
