In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to use a wireless PlayStation 2 (PS2) controller and an Arduino Uno pilot a robotic tank. Story An Arduino Uno board was used at the core of this project. It receives commands from the wireless controller and sets the speed of the motors. Other development boards might also …

This robot that can solve a Rubik’s cube using Arduino. I learned how to solve a Rubiks cube last year, and I was also into Arduino, so eventually I ended up with an idea to make my own Rubik’s cube solver. Like many people searching for “Rubik’s Cube Solver” on Google, one of the first …
Summer Project: Arduino Scouting Robot Arduino Scouting Robot Part 1 * 12,9,5 volt power supply recharge it with a 12-volt charger keep power switch on to charge * 2 DC motors operate at 7.2V with a maximum current draw of 3 amps * 2 Digital Servos operate at 6V with a maximum current draw of …
In this Instructable I wanted to show to you how to make a self balancing robot. What makes it unique is that its exterior is made to look like the Instructables Robot. Internally it works in the principle of PID, it is a very popular control system for maintaining a variable from fluctuating. In this instructable …
This is a Line Following Robot. It follows a black line that is drawn. It is able to detect the black line through one photocell and one analog light sensor. There is an LED in between the two sensors that gives off red light when the Arduino is powered on. Then, when the light is …
This is the documentation page for the Spring 2012 DIY Telepresence project. Here you will find schematics, software, and guides for the robot. The goal of the project was to design a low-cost, easy to build telepresence robot. Some of the features include: Segway based mobility plane Robot arm Aluminum frame Two way-video conferencing using …
This is a Nabaztag – Armenian, apparently, for “hare”. It’s an adorable bunny rabbit packed with sensors and communication devices…. and it’s completely unusable. There’s people who wrote some interesting software to hack it, and I applaud them: however, I could never actually get my Karotz (Nabaztag’s third incarnation) through the arduous initialization. So, to …
The “universal gripper” developed by researchers from Cornell University, the University of Chicago, and iRobot inspired me to create my own version. The YouTube video is quite impressive. The gripper can form around very asymmetrical and smooth shapes and still pick up the object. I gathered the materials below and decided to create a gripper …

Be sure to check out my new instructable , the ‘little Tank’! Really nice tracked design complete with cut files! update: I’ve had so much response on this instructable, thanks to all. If you end up making one, please let me know! I’d love to put your work on my website! New new update – The Electric Turtle is …
While the field of robotics is continuously expanding at a remarkable rate and better performing robots are created every year, robotics still remains out of reach for many students and researchers. The main reasons for this difficulty are the high complexity of the hardware and software of robots, and their typically high cost. We believe …
