Welcome To my robotics pages, here you will find some details of the robots I have constructed/hacked.
BotBuilder - DIY bot kits
I have been busy getting laser cut kits of the bots I have designed ready for you to build yourself! The bots are designed to be a modular base to which you can add your own interface boards and make really cool robots! Check out www.botbuilder.co.uk to see more info.
BotBoard 12 channel servo controller based on the PIC16F84 running at 20Mhz. This circuit is interfaced via rs232 @ 38400bps.

Simple ServoBot (PIC16F84 4Mhz) This is a simple 5 servo robot arm. It is controlled by a vb.net app which sends out data over rs232 to a PIC.
The PIC then positions the servo to a position between 0 and 255. There are no gradual movements when the servo is positioning, it is a straight "goto X pos".
Simple Servo Bot 2 does feature gradual movement, so check that out.
Simple ServoBot2 (PIC16F84 20Mhz) This is a simple 5 servo robot arm. It is controlled by a vb.net app which sends out data over rs232 to a PIC.
The PIC then positions the servo to a position between 0 and 240. This version features gradual servo movement, and can support upto 12 servos in parallel.
GunBot (PIC16F84 20Mhz) This bot uses the same circuit and PIC code as the Simple ServoBot 2.
The servos move a foam fireing "gun" equipped with a webcam through X and Y. A small servo is hooked upto the trigger mechanism, with a webcam for visual targetting.
