• Building instructions for m-BITBEAM

  Tomas Feltl • 06/05/2018 at 14:19 • 0 comments

  To make it possible to use the kit in education, education materials are necessary (ideally with methodics :-)). A necessary part of these materials are building instructions. We are giving you the basic set of the m-Bitbeam parts for construction of models/manuals in SW like LDraw, MLCad, LPub, … to give you the opportunity to make these "manuals". The parts are available in the DAT format. You can download them anytime you want start creating models and building instructions. We have placed everything into the repository on GitHub, for easier maintenance and cooperation in developing new parts.
  

• m-BITBEAM licence

  The m-BITBEAM construction set itself in open source project according to Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-SA) license, but some documentation is not, i.e., robot build instructions, workbooks... so you can see a notice about the restrictions in some documents.

• The advanced robot with the gripper

  Matous Pokorny • 06/04/2018 at 12:45 • 0 comments

  Molik is the advanced robot with the gripper and several sensors. It can do a complex task like to find something and bring it. You can compete with it in some robotic challenge, i.e., ketchup house on the Robotic day.

  There are two Molik's versions depend on motors. The first version uses 5V stepper motors 28byj-48. This version is accurate in motion but a little bit weak to manipulate with heavier objects. This Molik is suitable to draw pictures or play Ketchup house. The second version uses continuous servos. It is fast and strong enough to manipulate with objects but is very inaccurate. You can select the version appropriate for you.

  We are still working on nice, smooth, powerful and accurate robot motion. Molik's build instructions are in alpha version, and some sections are missing. I would like to discuss ideal motors for m-BITBEAM in another log a complete the build instructions.

• Robotic arm with magnetic effector

  Matous Pokorny • 06/04/2018 at 12:04 • 0 comments

  If you are interested in manipulators, robot Ramenak is a great choice for you. Ramenak is robotic arm with the magnetic effector. You can control it using joystick and potentiometer and check your motor skills. It also possible to add the bluetooth module and control Ramenak using smartphone or tablet.

  Ramenak's build instructions are in document l03-ramenak-v01r01-web.pdf (in Czech). Playground and rules of the easy game with Ramenak is in l03-ramenak-game.pdf (in Czech).

• Build your first robot with m-BITBEAM

  Matous Pokorny • 06/04/2018 at 11:20 • 0 comments

  You completed your own m-BITEBEAM set. Now you can build your first robot. We called it Ferda, and it is the very simple robot. It can just ride around. But it is also very versatile. You can add reflectance sensor, and Ferda will follow the line. With the ultrasonic range finder, Ferda can discover the room or escape the maze. It is up to your imagination and creativity.

  Back to the ground and start with the build instructions l07-ferda-v01r01-web-en.pdf. They guide you step by step throw the building. There are also the programs to set zero speed point and test the driving ability. Both of them are prepared in Ardublock and Arduino IDE.
