I was planning on purchasing the M100RAK Modular Robotic Arm Kit and i was wondering if it is possible to link a playstation 2 controller to the robot to be able to control its movement. If this is possible I am curious about how to be able to connect it to control the servos because the first robot arm i purchased said it was supposed to be able to connect to a controller but seems impossible to link up.
Any extra information pertaining to the M100RAK Modular Robotic Arm Kit would be greatly appreciated
I also have another question. I was curious with the M100RAK Robot Arm what type of power supply we can use with it. I was hoping that it would be possible to use batteries of some sort to power this Arm. If anyone has any knowledge at all on how to use the M100RAK with batteries it would really help me out a lot.
Thanks that ended up helping a lot! I just have one last question. I was hoping to add an additional degree of freedom to the robot by using a servo that rotates the wrist unlike the wrist that currently only moves the wrist up and down. We were currently planning on using the Lynxmotion A Style Gripper kit to the end of our robot to use as a gripper. It would really help if I could have your recommendation on what the best type of wrist connector would be.
I just have one more question hopefully on hooking all of this up. we purchased the playstation servo motor controller kit and we also purchased the m100rak modular robotic arm kit and the BAT-05 6V / 2800 mAH Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery. We have finished assembling the m100rak robot and the circuit board but we were just curious if there was anyway to connect the battery to the circuit board or what you recommend on how to assemble all of these pieces together.
It would need to be custom at this point - the holes on the 90 degree plate are really used to mount a camera. You could perhaps use hex spacers and drill holes in the plate?
