Instructable user randofo created a seed spreading robot by using a Lynxmotion Tri-Track kit and various other robot parts. Grass-seeds Spreading Robot In this instructable, randofo details the building process quite well including pictures and quite a humorous tone. He details, the mechanica…
The Linux way of getting a sandwich Besides loving robots, we love to eat sandwiches. So when we see robots making sandwiches that we can (probably) eat it makes us really happy. How to make us even happier? Make those robots DIY and made from parts you can find at RobotShop. The robot…
La programmation est généralement la dernière étape concernant la fabrication d'un robot. Si vous avez suivi les leçons, vous avez à présent choisi les actionneurs, l'électronique, les capteurs et autres, et vous avez assemblé…
What is FlowBotics Studio? FlowBotics Studio is a new robotics software development platform: it boasts the powerful FlowStone graphical programming language, and includes many demo robotics projects to get you started. It can be used to control just about any robotics platform, data acqui…
À présent que vous avez choisi tous les blocs de construction de base utilisés pour fabriquer un robot, l'étape suivante consiste à concevoir et construire une structure ou un cadre qui les maintient tous ensemble et donne à votre robot une apparence…
Zac Soden details his cheap and simple microcontroller, the Pic Processing Unit or PPU.. A couple of years ago I posted an article on the PPU (see page 2) - a complete micro-sized PIC16F84 processor board for robot applications. Since then I have recieved heaps of feedback on the PPU but some re…
This article details how to build a solar powered BEAM robot, the Trimet. Tools and equipment required: - Soldering iron (about 18W with a fine bit) and solder - Safety glasses (wear them at all times) - Long nose pliers - Side cutters - Wire strippers (optional) - Hot glue gun and glue sticks (…
A short article on how to build a simple infrared proximity detector. Adapted from the Stamps In Class robotics curriculum. After setting up your robot's motors and letting it run, one of the first things you'll realize, is that most likely it will run straight into a wall.
This year (2001), my parents have assigned me the task of doing a science fair project. After many many brainstorming ideas, I've finally settled on the idea of a project about maze solving robots and algorithms. I read Robot Science and Technology's article about the C* algorithm, with …
RobotShop Rover This article is a follow-up to the RobotShop Grand Tutorial Series and includes all the hardware chosen in the "Practical Example" at the bottom of each lesson. The RobotShop Rover for Arduino is a small tracked platform designed around the popular Arduino USB microcont…
Both Jawa Lunk and Scot Washburn have sent us some cool updates from the Wall-E builders group. For those not familiar with the Wall-E builder's group, it's an array of hobbiets that are building scale models of Wall-E, the star of the upcoming Pixar film about a robot named Wall-E.
Cubiebot, Filmmaker Robot Cubiebot, a little robot made from hobbyist robot parts and cardboard is directing and filming its own documentary. As a matter of fact, many of these filmmaker robots are on the loose interviewing humans about their relationships with other robots. As shown in the v
The Global Cloud Robotics Hackathon 2013 is currently taking place. The hacking marathon where participants compete to create the best cloud monitoring robotic application started on April 6th and will be ending on the 14th of the same month. So far 29 teams from all around the world are hard at w
Update: The contest is now closed. I'll be gathering the entires and sending them to our judges over the next week or two. Stay tuned for a post announcing the winners. If you won I will also contact you via email. Thanks and good luck! The past few months have been a lot of fun, with us giv…
À ce stade, vous devriez disposer de tous les principaux composants pour votre robot, dont des actionneurs, des contrôleurs de moteur, un microcontrôleur, des capteurs et des systèmes de communication. Vous approchez à présent de la phase d'inté…
Roborealm has an interesting tutorial on using machine vision for obstacle avoidance in ground-based vehicles. The tutorial shows a series of image processing steps which can be chained together to detect the "highest" point in an image, based on the ground color. Presumably, that high…
