I have always wanted to experiment with robotics, and lately I’ve found the time to build an “intelligent”, open-source robotic platform. The platform runs embedded debian linux, and includes the following main capabilities: 1. Computer Vision (imitation of the human vision. The robot sees and “understands” what it sees). For this I have extensively used [...]
A Radio-Controlled (RC) Servo USB Controller, that can control up to 9 servo motors and 9 general outputs.
Design, development and construction of an electronic controller for a CNC machine. The controller controls up to 3 stepper motors (up to 3 axes), has home and limit switches, and is optically isolated from the computer.
Stepper motors (also called step motors) are electronic motors that offer precise rotation control . Stepper motors are very precise (an average stepper motor can turn in about 0.9 to 1.8 degrees in each direction) and in a relatively high rotational speed. Stepper motors can be found in various types of hardware components: printers (the [...]
This circuit can program any MicroChip processor – from 6 pins to 40 pins processors.The programmer supports: PIC12,PIC16,PIC18,dsPIC24 ,dsPIC30 families, and uses an ICSP header thus not requireing to remove the PIC from the circuit each time it needs to be programmed.
