Delta Robot with Arduino & Wii
An enhancement of another delta robot published on this site: https://www.robotshop.com/letsmakerobots/node/10577. See my blog for more details, but the enhancements are:
- proper XYZ axis positioning: the Arduino calculates the full inverse kinematics of the Delta
- control using Wii. Pitch is Z axis, joystick is XY
- all source available at pastebin: http://pastebin.com/Kfq2WR5U
I used components from Conrad listed in the comments to the other post https://www.robotshop.com/letsmakerobots/node/10577. The arms are milled in a CNC router, and the base is lasered at a Fablab, all 4mm MDF. Sadly I lost the design somewhere.
- Actuators / output devices: 3 servos
- CPU: Arduino
- Power source: 5V adapter
- Programming language: Arduino
