Select the drivers folder an click OK, then click Next.

Another dialog appears: navigate to the folder with the Arduino software that you just downloaded.

#ARDUINO ROBOTIC ARM DRIVER#

At the next screen, choose "Browse my computer for driver software", and click Next.

If the installer does not launch automatically, navigate to the Windows Device Manager (Start>Control Panel>Hardware) and find the Arduino Robot listing.

Plug in your board and wait for Windows to begin its driver installation process.

They are valid also for Windows XP, with small differences in the dialog windows.

The following instructions are for Windows 7. There's nothing to configure with the robot, so you can close this dialogue by clicking the red button in the top left of the window.

The first time you plug a robot into a computer running OSX, the "Keyboard Setup Assistant" will launch.

If the LEDs on either board do not turn on, check if the flat 10-pin communication cable next to the power switch is connected to both boards. On the Motor Board, the red LEDs labelled as LED1 to LED5 (opposite side to the power switch) should be on as well. The motor board (the bottom board) has a stock firmware that fulfills most general purpose applications.Ĭonnect the control board to your computer with a USB cable.Īfter you have connected the board, the green LED labelled as PWR on the Control Board will be on. It is recommended that you should only program the control board (the top board) until you are familiar with the robot's functionality. Connecting the robot to your computerĮach board on the robot has a microcontroller, which is programmed independently of the other. Alternatively you can download the files here. If you ever accidentally remove files used by the explore sketches, you can copy them over from the SDcontent directory found in the robot library. Once comfortable with the robot's functionality, you should be able to add your own files. It comes preloaded with images and sound files used in the Explore examples.

The SD card is used to store information for the robot to read. Attach the protective covering to the underside of the robot as shown below. This will help prevent any objects on the ground from damaging the motor board. Once that's in place, you'll need to attach the protective cover for the botom board. The screen should be oriented so that the blue text with the text "SD Card" is close to the buttons and speaker. When you first open the robot, you'll need to set up a pair of things before it is ready to roll.įirst, you'll need to insert the SD card into the slot on the backside of the TFT screen, and then insert the screen into the socket on the control board of the robot. As you become more experienced, you may want to tinker with the Motor Board. If you're just getting started with electronics and programming, you should work with the Control Board. There are two different boards on the Robot: the Control Board (top) and the Motor Board (bottom). You can control all these sensors and actuators through the Robot library.

It also has a speaker, two motors, and a color screen as outputs. The robot comes with a large number of inputs two potentiometers, five buttons, a digital compass, five floor sensors, and an SD card reader. It comes with a number of of project examples you can easily replicate, and it is a powerful robotics platform that you can hack to perform all sorts of tasks. The hardware is open-source, and comes with a digital content platform containing many more step-by-step lessons and projects.With the Arduino Robot, you can learn about electronics, mechanics, and software. It can be assembled in several different ways to facilitate different movements, including attaching a solar panel and tracking the movement of the sun. Inside, there are six Arduino RS485 Smart Servo Motors, four in the arm and two to control the claw. All its plastic parts are 100% recyclable. The arm itself is made from recycled food cartons rather than virgin ABS plastic, with an aluminum layer for strength. The Carrier also has IO headers to connect accessories. There's also a new version of the Braccio Carrier board, with a mini joystick and small LCD screen, to enhance custom projects.

It sticks to the usual Arduino Nano form factor, and has full support for the entire RP2040 software ecosystem, including MicroPython.

#ARDUINO ROBOTIC ARM BLUETOOTH#

The Nano Connect joins the usual RP2040 controller chip with 16MB of additional flash storage, a microphone and motion sensors, plus a u-blox NINA-W102 radio module which brings Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2 to the board.
