Hi my robot friends,

did so many robot things in the last cold few weeks, time for farm activities again, nicer weather now 

time for drone, telescope, remote car activities. 

Will be checking in to see all the new robot activities, be well and safe my friends. :-)

Hi

navigation

I am using the Floor map and Touch path maps, nice navigation -  I am at my farm, on a hotspot and dangle with an IoTiny

my car follow it very nicely 

Video will follow soon

ARC - the Floor map and Touch path map, worked nice "above" - navigation 

Hope to be back home tomorrow from the farm, 3/17/2021

more exciting hobby robot activities

Plan to try with my Arduino when I get home the:

among other things

Robots are everywhere:

here are just a few:

Below are some interesting ideas for you to view for your projects:

I see one on Amazon

Also if you just lookup security robots, there is no end -

This look like an I robot, but acts very different:

On ARC https://synthiam.com/Community/Robots/Ez-face-514

works good

Oh ya that floor map touch screen to make a robot path is a really neat skill, I had that working with my Outdoors Terminator 2 years ago out at the cottage,works great if you have sonar working to avoid any rocks or trees that may be in the way. I think I can use that as well for my Target drones that I want to make.(Like more advanced robotic duck shooting targets)

the small version mecca is very good for modified with ARC .
they are cheap also . the size of the mecca servo's are desame as HDD ez robot.



and these hands work perfect . maybe another head printing.

robot hands

Wow Nomad, where do you buy these small Meccano  on the internet? I could use some if they are cheap only if in USA or Canada as shipping is so badly delayed from Europe,takes many months.

hi roborad

you by two for extra parts .you lots off cheap ones on ebay .

blue meccanoid

Oh from Ebay,of course! Will have a look!

I am back to 3d printing.

Looking around for something to print that is usable.

 just printed 2 soap boxes for my granddaughter, she will be on her way to college soon :-)

I use PETG filament

using the Ultimaker Cura 4.10 program for settings, slicing etc...

we figured our for our 3d printer:

I am using the Creality - Cr 10S pro v2 printer -  auto correction - BLTouch sensor to detect exactly how far away the nozzle is from the bed.

Measures all the glass bed with points(16 I believe) to determine the ideal setting

I always level it first myself.

"glass" bed = 87
nozzle = 238
speed =  I start at 25, then I move up - depending on what you are printing
fan off
Z = -2.29

These settings work great for me. You may need to tweak a bit for your machine.

Make surer you tighten the printer head (nozzle) so there is no play in it- tighten everything

found out some things are better printing at a slower speed 

On to my next print

PS,

I do want to thank NallyCat, Nomad, RoBoHappy  and others for getting me interested in 3d printing

Anyone 3d printing lately?

I have. Mostly work related stuff, nothing robotic at the momentm but some neat little things people have asked for.


For work, a SD card connector cover for an upcoming product (still a wip)


Jewerly cases. these were fun to print. Found on thingiverse.

hi all

am printing the famous M1 GARAND  with working inside.

Thanks RoboHappy,

seems 3d printing is hard to come by


Hi Nomad, 

What happened to your InMoov head, body?

Nice riffle, did you fire it yet?

Be safe

EzAng

hi ezang

inmoov is on hold..

Your Inmoov was looking good, when will you start it up again?

hi ezang

yes problably when i moved out .

hey ezang

look at this animation .cool graficks and colors.

Here some great tech DJ showed us a while back that is still pertinent for today
