If you are interested in robot manipulation, you might have heard of ROS2, the Robot Operating System. ROS2 is a set of software libraries that help develop robot applications. If you are familiar with it, you’ll be happy to hear that Lynxmotion recently added ROS2 support for the SES V2 4…
We are excited to give you a pre-launch glimpse into the upcoming Professional Servo Erector Set from Lynxmotion. The system is based around three high torque, high precision professional actuators which can be used to create a variety of different, complex robots.
mechDOG is a dog-like quadruped robot that features the Lynxmotion’s Smart Servo (LSS) Motors and the Servo Erector Set (SES) V2 brackets for the frame. It can be controlled in various ways including remotely with a handheld radio controller, wired with a USB cable, via WiFi using the inte…
Inverse Kinematics involves calculating the joint angles needed to move the legs to a specific position, this can be achieved by using a geometrical analysis. However, this alone will not allow mechDOG to walk; for this, we will need to synchronize the motion between the legs and include so…
The A4WD3 mobile platform is the latest in a line of Lynxmotion's four wheel drive rovers. This latest semi-professional design includes a large rugged machined frame (aluminum and G10) which is dust and water resistant and a large access hatch. Three different configurations…
Lynxmotion's Smart Servo (LSS) actuators which are part of the new Servo Erector Set (SES) V2 system can be used to create all kinds of robots. In this post, the three degree of freedom (3DoF) arm is described, along with a variety of accessories. Curious to know the differences between Lynx…
We have some good news for the Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS) fans ! The LSS line has two new electronic modules to show off : the 2IO Arduino Compatible Board and the 5V, 2A Regulator Board. Both of these modules are daisy-chainable in the LSS bus and will&…
Lynxmotion's new smart servo based articulated robot arm is now available! This modular arm uses the updated Servo Erector Set (SES) V2 robot construction system and includes many new features and functionality.
Lynxmotion has just released their new line of smart servo motors, intended to make smart servo technology accessible to all. So what are they all about, how do they work and how can they be used to create robots?
Our Lynxmotion MES-PDB (Multirotor Erector Set / Power Distribution Board) was created based on needs for our Lynxmotion MES frame system that will be released soon. Designing this board, the issues were to properly power all motors (up to eight motors), distribute the ESC signals and power the Lyn…
We've had the pleasure to read in the October issue of Servo Magazine a glowing review of our Lynxmotion Quadrino Nano. We're sharing some excerpts and images of the article with you today. There is a plethora of flight controllers on the market. Some tout their small size and low cost.
The FlowArm PLTW software is used extensively by Project Lead The Way CIM course. The newest version of the software is free to download and fixes minor issues and includes new features.
