IntroductionI wanted a videostream so I could keep an eye on my prints. I didn't want to print one of the standard RPi + camera cases for my printer so I decided to make it into a little rover robot. It's inspired by the butter passing robot in Rick...
First, I printed the motor carrier, then gently file the inside channel until it moves freely on the track. 3d printed parts were printed using PLA at .2mm layer height and 30% fill.Add the wheels using 3mm x 8mm screws. The wheels should turn freely,...
T1 Specifications: 28.4n/m theoretical output torque43.3n/m tested gearbox yield toque45:1 24v543g Thermal Management: The gearbox produces heat, from friction on the teeth and in the elliptical bearing, as well as from the motor and electronics....
Project Pipeline aims to tackle water overuse and aims to promote water conservation. The device is small and battery powered. With Project Pipeline you can monitor water usage in real time, rather than waiting for your bill to arrive. Project Pipeline...
I started with the idea of not using any kind of electronics and just have a contact breaker to make the coil oscillate. My first experiment with that setup worked well but the contacts just kept wearing out and the coil stopped oscillating within a...
The dimensions of the robotic lawnmower are 495x340x195 mm (length - width - height), is based on an Arduino Uno board with a shield made specifically for the control of the movement, the management of sensors and coils for the detection of buried wire,...
Start by removing the weight and making the chain into a loop. The P2-Winder sits at the bottom the the chain loop. The chain lies in a toothed chain-wheel. A motor and gearbox can turn the wheel. The original clock weight hangs below...
The initial idea was to make a life-size version of the actual game Operation. At the first meeting, however, an idea was proposed to keep the spirit of the original, but make it instead an alien autopsy, with the patient being an alien and the ailment...
Open-Source Robot Building Kit and Development Environment The main products in this robot building kit are: 1) Ethernet Modules (PCBs) a) EthMotors - a Microchip PIC32 controls up to 12 motors (up to 2.8A each, using 12 Texas Instruments'...
Introduction Op amps are well known for their utilitarian prowess, performing many vital tasks underpinning analog circuit design. They add, subtract, integrate, differentiate, and amplify with great precision! That’s all well and good…...
I'm documenting this retro-actively, so I'll be adding more project logs over the next few days/weeks. The first few iterations of the power supply are done. I ended up with a couple of variations on the theme, and I am still tweaking them to get the...
Short Description 40x40 t-slot profiles form the 470x500x550mm (HxWxD) sized frame. The large build volume of 300x300mm can be used with up to five Materials. This is achieved by water-cooled exchangeable tool heads. The tools do not have their own cooling,...
In the company where i work, we have a personal badge that we have to keep visible and we use it to open the office doors, like in most of the other companies. After breaking my badge holder, i came up with the idea of make a badge holder with PCBs and...
