MECHANICS - ROBOT CHASSIS CONSTRUCTION - 0 views

  • Large diameter wheels give your robot low torque but high velocity. So if you already have a very strong motor, then you can use wheels with larger diameters.
  • But if your motor is weak (such as if it does not have any gearing), you want to use a much smaller diameter wheel. This will make your robot slower, but at least it has enough torque to go up a hill!
  • Wheel width. You do not want it too wide as it causes increased resistance to rotating the wheel on a surface.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Make sure you get a motor which already has a gear box attached, as it makes your robot much better controlled, more efficient, and stronger.

    This robot tutorial should help you with the mechanical aspect of building your very first robot. You should have already read my build your first robot tutorial before moving on to this tutorial.

Intermediate Robot Building - 0 views

  • This book provides far more detail on the hardware aspects of robot building than any other I have seen to date and is worth picking up.
  • "Intermediate Robot Building" offers the kind of real-world knowledge that only an experienced robot builder can offer--the kind of knowledge beginners usually have to learn through mistakes. In this book, you'll learn the value of a robot heartbeat and the purpose of the wavy lines in photocells.

Robotics -- Logo Products - 0 views

  • Many Logo-based and other robotics products produced by LEGO are distributed to schools in the USA by Pitsco.
  • This free-range turtle does not require connection to a computer. All the controls are on board.
  • The Cricket is a tiny computer, suitable for all kinds of robotics projects, that you can program using Logo.
  •  
    Logo has long been used to control mechanical turtles and other robotic devices. Here are some sources of equipment and related software.

Robot Room - Intermediate Robot Building Book - 0 views

  •  
    Includes all of the step-by-step instructions you need to create your own robot that can explore rooms, follow lines, or battle opponents in mini sumo. The circuits and parts in this book are presented as independent modules, so that you can build the complete robot as described or apply the modules to your own unique robot designs.

BEAM robotics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  •  
    The word "beam" in BEAM robotics is an acronym for Biology, Electronics, Aesthetics, and Mechanics. This is a term that refers to a style of robotics that primarily uses simple analog circuits instead of a microprocessor in order to produce an unusually s

ROBOT GEARS TUTORIAL - 0 views

  • motors commercially available do not normally have a desirable speed to torque ratio (the main exception being servos and high torque motors with built in gearboxes)
  • With gears, you will exchange the high velocity with a better torque.
  • the larger gear will move more slowly than the smaller gear, but it will move with more torque.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Suppose your gearing ratio is 3/1. This would mean you would multiple your torque by 3 and your velocity by the inverse, or 1/3.
  •  
    No good robot can ever be built without gears. As such, a good understanding of how gears affect parameters such as torque and velocity are very important.

BEAM Robotics - 34 views

作者: ykjiang (Amorphous) 看板: Robotics 標題: BEAM Robotics 時間: Sun Oct 29 04:42:22 2006 移動機器人的編程方法很多,最簡單的機器人「編程」 法,是採用焊接(solder)的方式。 這種方法直接將 sensor 得到的訊號和馬達的驅動命令 相連。當中最讓人印象深刻的就是 Mark Tilden 提出的 BEAM ...
