EP 07 ] Slave Robot Circuit connection

In this episode, we are going to make circuit board, a stand for the robot and upload Arduino code.

We are going to use a pair of this servo board. In order to use servo board together, we need to change the address by soldering one point. Put the all circuit together and connect wires like this picture. If you already followed previous episodes, this step will be easy for you. we don’t need to use wires in order to connect the pair of servo board. I just soldered them together.

By the way, I was trying to solder with lead-free thread. It is somehow more difficult than normal lead.

At last, it’s time to connect the board to the robot. Left board is for upper body and the other board is for legs. I put the numbers on the board and the robot. Connect them carefully.

You may feel that there are so many cables and it is difficult to manage them. That is one of why I like smart actuators like Robotis Motor.

We are going to make a stand for the robot. You will find the link when you see the description below. Print them and attach it on a kitchen towel holder.

All we have to do is uploading new code into the Arduino. I also put a link in the description. The code makes all motors go to the center position and stay. You can adjust your robot. When the other robot sends data, this robot will move.

In the next episode, we will move to the master robot. It looks somehow complicate but don’t worry. If you follow all the steps one by one. It will be a piece of cake.
