Since I started with robotics, that I felt the need of having a board where I could directly plug-in my motors, servos, sensors and all the stuff without having to purchase any shield, or building pcb’s and soldering and troubleshooting and hours and hours of hard labour.. so, I decide to start designing a new [...]
Tagged Arduino, Motors, motoruino, Sensors, ServosI’ve found this two rc vehicles on a junk, they are in a very bad condition. The big one has the DC motor burned out, I will try to replace it.. brushless motor maybe.
They both have two different gear mode (hi and low speed), I am wishing to try it out.
This is the dead motor..
The [...]
It’s been quite a while without building robots… errr.. creatures..
anyhow I’m releasing this new creature, wich is still a work in progress.. and since I can’t think on a name for it, I will call it demannU, witch is “unnamed” backwards… sounds like ‘demon’, and for the sake of insanity, it looks like a little [...]
I was invited to assist Mitch Altman during codebits. I believe it is going to be an amazing experience. :)
I will also talk about Creative Robotics on Friday at 2PM.
Filipe Valpereiro from InMotion.pt will talk about Arduino, and Rui Madeira will talk about OpenFrameworks.
Hope to see you there ;)
May I introduce you to the new family members: Farrusco v2.5, and Farrusco Junior.
Farrusco v2 is the new generation of my first robot Farrusco.
The F2 was created with Filipe Valpereiro from InMotion.pt, and this was the robot used for the last robotics workshops season.
The F2.5 version has a cleaner design, we are using two modified [...]

SSS (servo suspension system) is designed to support standard servo motors and act as a basic suspension. It is still a work in progress and has not been tested yet.
Will update results as soon as possible (still waiting [...]
