[Tobias Kuhn] had watched a YouTube video about a robot arm which used servo motors, and wanted to try making one himself. But he found it hard to get slow or smooth movements out of the servos. Even ...

[Skyentific] is looking to push the hobbyist robotics state of the art. Motors and their gears, the actuators, are typically the most expensive part. For his build, he realised he needed big servos ...

Chess players in Raspberry Pi enthusiasts may be interested in a new DIY Raspberry Pi chess computer which is equipped with a robotic arm to move pieces when required and has been created by YouTube ...

This circuit is not the very latest in robotics, but it may be of interest to those of you involved in making little robots using popular and inexpensive components. The proposed idea is a ...

What if building a robotic arm didn’t require a massive budget or a team of engineers? Imagine a device capable of delivering smooth, precise movements for studio applications, constructed for less ...

On display at Pack Expo (Booth #2520) is Schneider Packaging Equipment’s latest robotic palletizer, featuring FANUC’s M-20ia/35, a light payload handing robot with cable-integrated arm. The palletizer ...

Researchers at the MIT Media Lab and Italy’s Politecnico di Bari have developed artificial muscle fibers that aim to match ...
