An IEEE QP++ Project that aims to replicate the actions of one's arm.
Detailed documentation with instructions on how to reproduce our project: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18Sg7S5h8ZwhW116lG7X9LGoN67Ntuahs0ENhkMbb-kE/edit?usp=sharing
Different sections of project: gyros, flex sensors, servo testing (relaying data to this to control the servos)
Current Progress:
- (6/2/2019) Final adjustments to wiring and clean code. Project complete!
Past Updates:
- (6/1/2019) Calibrated gyro sensor with servo motor for lateral sweeping movement.
- (5/31/2019) Calibrated individual flex sensors to their respective 3D printed fingers.
- (5/29/2019) Attached flex sensors to the glove and strung fishing line between servos and fingers.
- (5/27/2019) Moved wiring to smaller breadboard and finish combining 3D printed components
- (5/25/2019) Combined flex sensor code with gyro code. Both types of sensors are able to control assigned servos through PWM controller.
- (5/23/2019) Flex sensors are working and can make each of the 5 servos move, but no integration in gyros and servos with the flex sensors yet. Will eventually move to attaching components to glove and using solder to connect components.
- (5/23/2019) Issues so far: Need to send a char to run (gyroscope) program, need to unplug and replug USB periodically (for STM32)
