6 Chan, 12-Bit PWM Precision

Each servo gets a 4096-level (12-bit) PWM encoder providing

  • 0.044° or 23 steps-per-degree on 180° servos
  • 0.066° – 15 steps-per-degree on 270° servos.

10A Current Monitoring

Using current as a measure of workload and calibrating against no-load standards,
makes estimating weight, force, or grip strength possible.

16-Bit AtoD Precision

Fast, Accurate, and Consistent readings monitor workload even while stationary, making it possible for your arm to respond to external forces.

A Development System for Kinetics and Feedback.

Beginning with easy steps you can move the arm and watch it in action using the 6DOFHUB control application.

You can then generate and save sequences of movements intended for specific purposes, optionally saved for later recollection.

The device can be controlled using C++ or Python with source code available so you can learn from what has been done, and create your own branch, or contribute to the project.

Fun at Any Scale

Operates under laboratory conditions or portable mobility for education and demonstrations.

Arduino Development

ESP32 – Hookup Ready

Raspberry Pi – Demonstration or Development

Scaleable – ROS, MathCad, and PyTorch ready.

The Tools Needed to Develop a Better Understanding of Robotics and Engineering

Integrated Calibration

Allows power-on no-load zero calibration to make your calculations easier.

FAST I2C

Supports standard 100Kbps, FAST 400Kbps, or Ultra 1Mbps bus speeds

Polled, or Interrupt

AtoD CONVERSION_READY pinouts allow interrupt response to current changes..

Tkinter UI

Friendly, informative UI reflects results of control changes almost instantly.

Documentation

All code and documentation in clear English. Written by a Canadian Computer Scientist.

Your Next Move – Robotics

It may not be all you’ll ever need for a career in Robotics, but it may be exactly what you need to motivate action.

Quality Circuit Designs

We use the latest technology to achieve a minimalistic design with optimum useability and maximum flexibility. The result is a simple robotic arm controller you can afford on a tight budget.
