  • Updated Design with Grips

  • The grips are based on 3/4" aluminum square tubes. The predicted squeeze strength is around 40 pounds.What about safety? Using PyUltimateRobot (see that Hackaday page), one can limit maximum force of any component of any movement. For example, you can...
  • Some progress

  • I made a silly mistake and messed up the switch on the robot pcb. The rework makes the robot look bad, so this is no good for the Kickstarter, so I fixed it and will do a new pcb spin.I have a shout out to PCB Pool, my board manufacturer, about a couple...

  • HACKLET 106 – ROBOTS THAT TEACH

  • One of the best ways to teach electronics and programming is with hands-on learning. Get the concepts off the computer screen and out into the real world. Students of all ages have been learning with robots for decades. Many older Hackaday readers will...
  • Radiation Measurements: Distance Tests

  • After we built our sensor and mounted it to the Turtlebot 3, we ran it in a stationary mode to collect some test data. We placed four small radiation test sources in a holder at the height of the sensors, and positioned the robot between 8 and 24 inches...
  • Hall sensors as encoder

  • As mentioned in a previous entry, the robot is using two revolution counters, one on each wheel. The encoders are not directly connected to the wheel, but to the motor drive rod. The drive rods are then immediately linked to the wheel. The encoder...
