Title: A Wooden Robotic Arm?
Post by: PyroElectro on November 12, 2007, 11:50:20 PM
Hey guys,

I built this as a class project last semester. I'm not a mechanical
engineer as you can see...but I can control hobby servos with
a microcontroller pretty well.

By the way, that is some fake PS1 controller that I
bought from an electronics surplus store , it connects
via RJ45 Ethernet which is  weird but I managed to
interface it.  ;D

The writeup of how the robotic arm project was done
including software source code is here:
