Make: Robotic Arms

Projects

Project 1

Building a Basic Joystick Circuit

Project 2

Position-Variable Motor Control

Now, much like in our previous examples, we

could wire a simple push-button circuit to control

the two actuators of our robotic arm. We could

also wire two potentiometers, as we did in

chapter 2. In fact, you could reupload the push-

button and potentiometer code from chapter

2 and use it to control our second robotic-arm

design, primarily because each design uses the

same number of actuators.

This, however, would be boring. We can choose

from hundreds of exciting inputs to control

projects like robotic arms. With our second

robotic arm, we have ...
