ESP-Now Remote Control Test
To control a robot, I wanted to see if ESP-NOW, a communication method developed explicitly for the ESP family, would work. This project aims to determine whether ESP-NOW provides a reliable connection over a reasonable distance and whether ESP-NOW can send sufficient data back and forth.ESP-NOW makes it possible to set up different types of…

In my last article, I wrote about using an MD04 motor driver for my motors. In the example, I used an Arduino Uno to test the motor drivers and made the code work. I want to use the Teensy 4.1 in my robot because of the board’s multiple serial connections and its higher speed. The…

inMoov Robot Bicep
The bicep from the inmoov is not a complex part and are the same for both left and right arm. The covers are sometimes a struggle to mount because in my case the print is a bit taller then it should be. My Servo (Hitec HS-805BB+) has a square potentiometer so this doesn’t fit in…

InMoov Support Block
After the crash of my inMoov robot it took a lot of work to put it back together. To prevent a crash again I decided buy a stable speaker stand for big speakers. To make it fit it was necessary to design a special block to connect the upper body of the inMoov robot to…
