  • I made a fully articulated robot arm! on my ceiling. It can freely move around and do all kinds of cool stuff.
    The arm is powered by a Raspberry Pi, controlling stepper and servo motors for each joint. It can be controlled with a graphical web interface build using the Unity game engine.

    As someone who is still relatively new to the field mechatronics, here's some tips that may help from my testing with very cheap materials and supplies (we're talking cardboard and SG90 servos since i'm a high school student)
    * You could use an extended kalman filter for state estimation for the motors. Sometimes, for cheaper motors or if you use gears (not sprockets/chains), occasionally it can "skip" and give you a slightly incorrect value, a kalman gain function could fix this. Bang-bang filters are also an option if an eKF is too hard
    * You could use a cheap webcam (or your current one) and use OpenCV with a morphological image processing algorithm or blob detection for objects. Blob detection is terrible in different lightning conditions, and if you wanted to do fast processing, a truncated SVD would be good to use for pre-processing in conjunction with a MIP
    * A PD/PID controller would be good to move to a position. It's a little more complex than what you have, but it's incredibly useful and has that "easing" motion you're aiming for, specifically with a PID controller. However, a PD controller is better for quick and less precise movements (in my opinion)
    * A Stewart platform would be interesting to use for the base, if you wanted angular motion, as well (although definitely not needed, would almost be redundant)
    edit: The field of inverse kinematics is also worth looking into, but from what I saw with the computer renders, it looks like you have something similar going on

Planning to build a small-scale GLaDOS to act as a smart home hub, and to have other useful features, like a tracking light source, Kinect camera for scanning, speakers, and room for expandability. It's hard finding the time though to dedicate to a project like that, but hopefully someday.
