Arduino Robotic Arm (OPEN SOURCE) + Python control APP + EXTRAS

This 3D printed Pybot SCARA Robotic arm has been created using common and affordable elements from the 3D printed World (NEMA 17 motors, Linear bearings, timing belts...)

The idea was to create a reliable, fast, modifiable and accurate Robotic Arm for everyone who wants to have a very cool desktop robot and/or anyone willing to learn robotics and mechanics. The control APP has been created with Python

Robotic Arm Stages of project development

Robotic Arm 3D interactive model

We have written a detailed assembly guide, explained the Mechanical design and code on its landing webpage : https://www.jjrobots.com/scara-robotic-arm-by-jjrobots/

The control code has been written in PYTHON and it has been thoroughly explained and commented for easy understanding.

The control APP for MacOS and Windows is freely available and 100% OPEN. User guide here

All the links to code, assembly guides...etc can be found here: https://www.jjrobots.com/scara-robotic-arm-by-jjrobots/

Repeatability test video

NEW!:Added Xbox/PS4 controller. Now you can control the pyBot Robotic arm using your PS4/Xbox controller

************************************************************************************************

If you want to save the hassle of getting the different elements from different sources and want them all fast, create your own custom Robotic KIT here (and add what you really need)
