Robotarm

[Amateurtje]

Hello,

 does anybody have some experience with a robotarm? I was looking at the tinkerkit or something.. just for fun and test if we can get it to move.. This arm is made for arduino but that is not what we prefer       

Anybody wants to help me going with this or has some experience with it??

Hi,
If it is the same as here   https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/shields-for-arduino/1113738?cm_mmc=UK-PLA-DS3A-_-google-_-CSS_UK_EN_Raspberry_Pi_%26_Arduino_%26_Development_Tools_Whoop-_-Shields+For+Arduino_Whoop_OMNISerpNov-_-1113738&matchtype=&aud-772940708119:pla-306242761339&cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=10914490524&cq_term=&cq_plac=&cq_net=g&cq_plt=gp&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsf-q992F-QIVDah3Ch20nQmZEAYYASABEgJep_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds 
I should think it would be quite simple in Positron, by the looks of it all you would need to use is the servo command.

There is a simple example in the samples folder but I think Les posted one controlling 8 simultaneously but that may have been on the old forum.

That bit of kit looks expensive, it might pay to get one of these first to see how you get on.  https://thepihut.com/products/mini-pan-tilt-kit-assembled-with-micro-servos?variant=27739702673&currency=GBP&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI1Y79-N-F-QIVCuN3Ch0KwwxZEAQYDCABEgKwefD_BwE
