Overview

Arduino and anthropomorphous Robot

Description

With my class I got a kit to buil a 6 DOF robot. We thought to drive it with Arduino, but we wanted a excitinig Human Machine Interface, We often use LV 2011 in our lab, so we downloaded LIFA application and we uploaded it to Arduino. Then we arranged panel and diagram, so, we obtained an user friendly console to drive our robot.


Steps to Implement or Execute Code

  1. Load LIFA to Arduino, using Arduino Development Environment. Then connect motors to power supply (be careful with absorbed current, up to 1.5 A).
  2. Run the VI (LV 2011) named ROBOT_2014_new.vi . The VI calls a subroutine named ROBOT_2014_sub.vi that I attach to this message

Requirements

Software LV 2011, LIFA for Arduino.

Hardware 6 DOF robot, 6 servo motors, Arduino UNO (with 6 PWM digital outputs)
