“Robotic Arm” es un brazo robotico el cual cuenta con un modelo dummy de menores dimensiones. Este modelo copia tendrá una conexión entre sus potenciómetros y los servomotores ubicados en el modelo principal. Al mover con la mano las 4 articulaciones del modelo dummy provocará que el modelo original se mueva por su cuenta y en sincronía. Además el modelo dummy contará con un botón en el extremo superior del brazo, el cual al ser presionado, accionará la pinza ubicada en el extremo superior del modelo original.

RoboticArm: common questions

What microcontroller does the RoboticArm use?

The RoboticArm is built around the RP2040-Zero, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the RoboticArm PCB?

The RoboticArm measures 117.1 × 68.6 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the RoboticArm?

28 components, from 22 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the RoboticArm design files?

From the misaacastillo/RoboticArm repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the RoboticArm design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with misaacastillo. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the RoboticArm without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RP2040/RP2350 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
