Slapped together robotic arm!
This is a robotic arm I made using the Propeller demoboard, ltc1298 adc ic, and a Flexiforce sensor (from Parallax) and also the Bioloid begginer kit and the Big grip-gripper w/ servo (from Crustcrawler).
I mounted the Flexiforce sensor at the 'pincher' section in the gripper to sense the grip load and control the pinch force of the servo. It is completely controlled by the Propeller demoboard with a
ps2 mouse. I included a picture of my demo board setup, the schematic and code. These ax12+ servos are digital and pretty potent - a little over 200 oz/inch of torque each.··· Check out the video!
