Faze4, CM6 and PAROL6 how do they fit together?
Log from PAROL6 - Desktop robotic arm
FAZE4 As some of you may know I also designed 2 other 3D-printed DIY robot arms; Faze4 and CM6. I would say Faze4 did well in the open-source community and has an active user base. It is mostly used by students as thesis work and just like a DIY robot...

Overview
Log from The OtterMobile
Two weeks before the EMFcamp 2018 I learned on Twitter about Hacky Racer. And because I'm quite into moving objects, I had to join the race. I already have some moving objects, a BobbyCar, a moving armchair, but all of these are rather unpractical to...

Smart Knob
Details from Smart Knob
System Overview The Smart Knob is based on ESP WROOM 32E microprocessor module. The haptic feedback is realized by burying a BLDC motor in the main body of the knob. A magnetic sensor senses the direction of the knob and sends the angle to ESP32. ESP32...

FlexSEA: Wearable robotics toolkit
Details from FlexSEA: Wearable robotics toolkit
One major reason for that is that there is a huge gap between the hardware that's used in commercial devices and in research prototypes. To make a successful robotic prosthesis you need a small, lightweight embedded system that can support high peak...

ROSCOE - A Scalable, Platform Independent Robot
Details from ROSCOE - A Scalable, Platform Independent Robot
The focus of this project is a very low cost robotic platform that provides a test bed for a new model of machine cognition. A purpose built micro cluster serves as the 'brain' and the BigSack deep K/V store was optimized for cluster operation. The Robot...

Locking the input shaft (Part 2)
Log from DIY Electric Vehicle from Recycled Parts
Input shaft: LOCKED!I'm now able to lock the two motors together and drive them against each other as a dyno. Did this briefly today and it worked nicely.This is an important ability as it lets me tune the offset angle for different speed and torque...

Scope
Log from Supercon talk: a pragmatic guide to motor controls
Motor control is a very broad topic. It touches on traditional electronic design, power design, signals, physical properties, math, embedded systems...I actually can't think of an area it doesn't touch. There are experts in the field who spend their...

Another common source for use of anaQuad120! Optical Drives!
Log from anaQuad!
anaQuad120 was mentioned in a previous log entry, here: https://hackaday.io/project/9984/log/33419-anaquad120 wherein a couple hall-effect transistors from a BLDC-motor can be used as an encoder. In the previous log, I used those from a 5.25in floppy...

ICEngine Removal
Log from Mitsubishi E-clipse
I had been putting off the old combustion engine removal since I sometimes need to drive this car, but being the nice summer bike-riding months of portland and all, it was time. Also, the timing belt tore its self up.. oopsEngine removal is kinda fun...

Entry 1: from whence we start
Log from Reverse Engineering: Brushless DC Motor Controller
Before 2016, I'd not worked with brushless DC motors. Being very aware of the Dunning-Kruger effect, I assumed that I would need to learn quite a lot, and that I'd come out the other side thinking myself an idiot. Which is mostly true; I made some ridiculous...

S-ROV controller test
Log from S-ROV : Underwater Drone
I have tested the main controller. The wiring is ,a bit complicated, but the following tests were conducted in the above situation.1. PLC(Power Line Communication) availabilityI checked the Ethernet communication through the 50m long wire and it works...

Servo bits, ankle concept & DevRemote
Log from Droidbot 07 - Wheeled-Quadruped
It's been a while so I thought I'd post a quick something... Mounts and arms available on Thingiverse. A while ago I created some parts for the heavy duty standard sized servos that I'm planning to use in the bot's "head" mechanism. They nothing fancy,...

Design #1: Test setup
Log from MORPH : Modular Open Robotics Platform for Hackers
This has been a pet project for about a year now, and I would like to start by giving a short summary of the past design iterations. While having a general idea in my head, I didn't start with a clear end-design. Instead I focused on rapid prototyping...

'Bird of Prey II' Super Long Range VTOL UAV
Details from 'Bird of Prey II' Super Long Range VTOL UAV
Extended flight times are often an asset in Search and Rescue operations and many other humanitarian and commercial endeavours. Originally conceived as an answer to border patrol woes in Cote d'Ivoire, Africa, the utility of this unit is unmatched....

Current Status and Testing
Log from TrillSat
Current Status I've spent about one year programming the core systems, and one year building, and it is now in the final stages of writing/perfecting the highest level algorithms and adjusting for real-world use. The packet radio interface has...
