Robotic arms and legs provide robots with reach and the ability to affect the robot’s position and its environment. This book examines the process of controlling and tracking robotic limbs. It ...

A robotic arm is an excellent idea if you’re looking to get started with electromechanical projects. There’s linkages to design, and motors to drive, but there’s also the matter of control. This is ...

A Columbia Engineering team has created a robot that is able to learn a model of its entire body from scratch. In a nutshell, the robot created a kinematic model of itself and used it to “plan motion, ...

[Jochen Alt] is on a roll. We just covered his ball-balancing robot, Paul, only to find his phenomenal six-DOF robot arm in full retro style. Its name is “Walter” and it’s done up in DDR style (the ...

The design of a standard robot arm is, more or less, a mechanized representation of an idealized human arm, replete with elbow and wrist joints. Such designs tend to be unwieldy in confined spaces, ...

If you are considering building your very own robotic arm you may be interested in a new high-performance DIY robot arm built by computer scientist Pavel Surynek. The Real Robot One or RR1 has 6 (6 ...

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 ...
