How-To Tuesday: Arduino 101 potentiometers and servos
Check out makershed.com for a complete line of Arduino products. This is the 3rd installment of my Aduino How-To Tuesdays. This week I am going to cover using another basic part, the potentiometer. I will also cover connecting a servo to the Arduino. Servos can be hard to control, but not with the Arduino! That's just another reason why I love this little micro-controller.

3-Servo Walking Robot - The Latest in Hobby Robotics
How do you make a walking biped robot, with only 3 servos? In this episode of The Latest in Hobby Robotics, Frits Lyneborg from letsmakerobots.com shows you his inventive way of doing just that. The programs used the robot on the video can be downloaded here: letsmakerobots.com/node/29379 Tools needed are just very basics, like saw, drill, ruler etc. Materials are the 3 servos, some wood (4 paint sticks), hot glue, a couple of screws and some thread locking fluid. The servos are controlled by an AXE230, and batteries are used as balancing weight. You can use either 3 "normal" batteries, or 4 rechargeable, you just need somewhere between 4.5 and 5.5 volts. You can adjust the the height of the batteries, and there are several parameters to adjust in the programming code as well, to make your robot walk well. You can also port the simple code to any other micro controller of your choise, and add sensors, arms and more to your own robot. If you have never build a robot before, the best place to start is probably here: letsmakerobots.com/start
How to REVERSE a Servo.
Here is how I reverse my servos, when I need one, that cannot be reversed with the TX. It works on most servos, but with the smaller ones, I find it easier to "cut and splice" the wires to the potentiometer. Do not attempt this if you are not confident in your soldering abilities, as it is necessary no wire comes undone in flight. Thanks for watching. Dave
Servo driven mechanical Juggler 5ball mode
The fiveball juggling operation is the most difficult to control, because all five axis must be controlled synchronously and the throwing up the third, fourth and fifth ball require split the juggling kinematics description in more parts and ensure carry them out in control application in right order and time using any type of cam automat.

servo motors are good output devices for physical computing which gives precises angle of rotation when a right pulsing time is given to it. as i have done several sensor input and it's time now for me to get in touch with some sort of physical output. nothing new, just turn around a rubber duck (at 180 degree) when a knob is turned around. interactive installation exercise by kitdashit.com
ASSM12h Servo Controller 18-channels, 8-bit
Presentation of possibilities of my own design servo controller. Various independent speeds, 18-channels, 8-bit resolution (I'm planning to TRY increasing resolution to 10 bits). Possibility of setting a position to be reached in desired time. You can see it in the movie at 0:30 - 0:40 (each servo has different distance to go, but all of them are set to do this in the same time, so the move starts and ends at the same time). Controlled by Atmel ATmega8, 16MHz. PC communication via rs232.

DIY USB-Controlled Servo Squirter Water Pump
In this video, we'll show you a simple project where we connect a hobby R/C servo to a small water pump, and control both from the USB NerdKit. Using input from the connected computer, you can aim, and fire a stream of water. The video also introduces topics like Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), including how hobby servos share a common protocol (1.0 to 2.0ms pulses), and how to use the ATmega168 to generate these pulses. For more details, source code, and more, see: www.nerdkits.com
Make Electric Screw Drivers from R/C servos.
Using an Kraft KPS 15 servo, here I show how to make your own screwdriver for working with small, repetitious screws, Allens or bolts. Necessity is the mother of invention, so hence (because we had so many little screws to remove and replace) this was the cool way to do it. Many old servos can be found and used for this task at garage sales, etc. I use mine all the time and hope you may find this a useful project to try. I use Amazing Goop to glue my stuff, www.amazinggoop.com and because this is a tight fit with lack of air, let it dry at least 48 hours before using. Your servo may differ than mine, and you may elect to mount your screwdriver to the output arm, or servo wheel instead. That allows you to remove the driver and add a drill bit, slotted screw drive, or Allen wrench instead. I made mine permanent, because I dont lose anything since it is entirely self-contained. Most of the things I need to use it on is Phillips anyway. This fits in the palm of the hand rather well and you may find it a useful tool. Have fun, and thanks for watching. Dave
Robot Builder's Guide 3 - Hacking a Servo
In these series of videos I aim to show you the basics of constructing a fighting robot. Episode 3 - This episode covers the moofications needed to make a standard servo turn 360 degrees for use as an antweight robot motor. Although the model shown is a Futaba S3003, the principal is the same with any servo. Check out robotguide.blogspot.com for the podcast version to go on your ipod!
What is a Servo Motor?
Basically, the hallmark of any servomotor is the presence of feedback and closed-loop control. Servomotors are able to provide precise control of torque, speed or position using closed-loop feedback. They can also operate at zero speed while maintaining enough torque to maintain a load in a given position. Servomotors have several distinct advantages over other types of motors. For starters, they offer more precise control of motion. This means they can accommodate complex motion patterns and profiles more readily. Also, because the level of precision offered is high, the position error is greatly reduced.

Servo driven mechanical Juggler 3ball mode
The threeball juggling operation is the most difficult to control, because all five axis must be controlled synchronously and the throwing up the third ball require split the juggling kinematics description in more parts and ensure carry them out in control application in right order and time using any type of cam automat. The control system is distributed and consist of BuR PowerPanel PLC with integrated visualization, five Acopos servo-drives controlling all five real axis and one virtual synchronizing axis and there is also X20 I/O module. All these parts are interconnected using PowerLink industrial Ethernet in version 2 (shortcut is EPL2 ) for real-time control where high throughput is required too.

Double your servo power and have backups too. Heres how I do it.
* Please read* 3 servo failures in 2 weeks, caused me to take a look at how we failsafed them in the past. But originally, we doubled servos to double the power for big fast airplanes. Some companies today sell a complete set of linkages and mounts that can hook up to 3 servos at once! Triple power! Preflights and Micro throttle Backup servos could help. Got a Nitro plane with lots of money and time tied up in it? If it is too expensive to crash, you can always backup your servos along with other equipment. If your going to fly heavy Nitro planes, you may consider doing this, since you will have the room. I have done this for some of my 1/4 scale planes mostly back in the day when we were scared to fly and always worried about something quitting. So in my quest to show all the new folks more RC history and remind the old folks of the "Good ole Days", I hope you enjoy this. In a previous video you saw me demonstrate how to backup batteries and make Landing Batteries. So in continuing on with my "backup series", this video will demonstrate how I backup my servos with a simple linkage hookup and operation. If a servo does fail, it is easy to see and hear as it will be working harder plus the throw (due to springs) is reduced and you can see that. Remember "If it sounds stupid but it works, it ain't stupid!" Thanks for watching, subscribing, and all your continued support.

MST3K - Favorite Moments - Zombie Nightmare
Episode 604 is the classic tale of a baseball-hunk who, after being hit by a car, is revived as a zombie to exert revenge on the teenagers who killed him. This episode features cult stars such as Adam West (Batman), Tia Carrere (Wayne's World), Jon Mikl Thor (of the band Thor), and extremely weird voices, a rather unpleasant nibble-reveal, a guy with Farah Fawcet hair (another reason why the 80's are best forgotten), voodoo, the Twist & Créme, heavy metal, a guy wearing a skort, a teenage detective, and the goofy stage of grieving. One of my favorite episodes.

EZ-B Bluetooth Servo Tamiya Bulldozer Robot
This is a tutorial video on how to assemble and modify a Tamiya Bulldozer into a bluetooth servo controlled robot. The brains of the robot are a EZ-B Board available at www.ez-robot.com. The software is EZ-Builder, which is also available at www.ez-robot.com. The Tamiya Bulldozer Kit is a favourite amongst robot builders. There is only one problem with the kit... It is powered by DC gear driven motors, yuck! This little project I put together today demonstrates how to modify the kit to use modified servos in place of the DC motor set. The modified servos provide greater accuracy of speed control. They are also pretty strong without needing to move quickly. I used the EZ-B Board for the brains of the robot. The software is EZ-Builder.

What is a Servo Controller?
Servo controllers are used to control servomotors. When dealing with servo systems, it's important to note that definitions for servomotor, servo system, and servo controllers can differ widely throughout industry. When selecting a servo system for an application, it's best to ask suppliers what exactly their offerings entail.
