This is a CONVERSION KIT for the ROBOT ARM.
One use for the CONTROLLER is to enable the five motors in the ROBOT ARM to be controlled using position feedback. The Teaching unit details the use of the CONTROLLER with the ROBOT ARM.
The central control element for the CONTROLLER is a Picaxe-40X microcontroller. The CONTROLLER may be incorporated into initial design of the ROBOT ARM or may be used to convert the ROBOT ARM at a later date. The CONTROLLER may also be used for mechanisms that require up to six axes of motor control with position feedback. Other devices may also be connected to the unused inputs and outputs.
NOTE: This (conversion) option allows building the ROBOT ARM as a mechanical project, then converting and programming it as an Electronics project.
