After some experimenting, he came up with a smooth moving robot arm with four steppers controlled from an Arduino Mega and A4988 stepper motor drivers.

Component Assembly: Connect two DC motors to the motor driver to control the left and right wheels. Attach the ultrasonic sensor to a servo motor to allow rotation and scanning of the environment.

Arduino boards are inexpensive and relatively easy to use devices with support for a range of sensors and motors. Now there’s an official Arduino Robot kit which makes it even easier to get started.

The kit comes with Arduino Mega, which will serve as the brain, along with ESP8266 Wi-Fi Shield for remote control, a motor driver to control movement, and a battery holder. A voltage meter and power ...

This code turns an Arduino into a motor controller! It provides a simple serial interface to communicate with a high-level computer (e.g. running ROS), and generates the appropriate PWM signals for a ...

For inquisitive kids and beginning tinkerers alike, pick up the Makeblock Arduino Starter Robot Kit, now nearly half off at $79.99 in the TechSpot Store.

To try it out, I designing a pcb for interfacing an Arduino to two robot motors (scroll down here for original design), to which I have added a few more resistors to make sure all the transistors are ...

The new Arduino Robot Kit is the first official Arduino robot and is equipped with two processors, one on each of its two boards. The Motor Board controls the motors, and the Control Board reads ...
