Ard-e: The robot with an Arduino as a brain using microcontroller

Leave a Comment / AVR ATmega Projects, Robotics - Automation Projects /

Hopefully after reading this instructable you will be able to take your first step into robotics. Ard-e cost about $90 to $130 depending on how much spare electronics you have lying around. The main costs are: Arduino Diecimella- $35 https://www.makershed.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MKSP1 Bulldozer kit- $31 http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/item.php?product-id=70104 Servo- $10 I got mine at a local hobby store Worm […]

This Instructable will show you how to build your own Web Connected Robot (using an Arduino micro-controller and Asus eee pc). Why would you want a Web Connected Robot? To play with of course. Drive your robot from across the room or across the country, using nothing more than Skype and a web browser (nothing

Arduino R/C Lawnmower (painted) using Atmega168 microcontroller

Leave a Comment / AVR ATmega Projects, Robotics - Automation Projects /

What this is: This instructable will show you how to make your Arduino into an R/C interface that you can use for just about anything requiring remote control. I will also show you how I built an R/C lawnmower using my Arduino, a cheap R/C transmitter and receiver pair, and a couple of electric-wheelchair motors from Ebay.

Picopter using Microcontroller ATmega128RFA1

Leave a Comment / AVR ATmega Projects, Robotics - Automation Projects /

Update May 4 2012: I am still working very hard on version 3 of Picopter. The new version’s hardware is already done. There are new 3D printed motor holders. I’ve done some measurements with regards to mass and radio spectrum. I’ve posted stuff to http://www.frank-zhao.com/picopter_forum/index.php including the new design files, so take a look. Update Feb

Delta Robot using atmega32 micrcontroller

Leave a Comment / AVR ATmega Projects, Robotics - Automation Projects /

And now for something completely different: A little robotics project for the weekend. The described robot can be build entirely from model making supplies and materials from the hardware store. Also only very few tools are needed. A metal saw, a drill press, a vice and optionally a tap will suffice. And here you can
