NANO ROBI. BIOLOID AX-12

thingiverse

A 3D printed Robot for Bioloid AX-12. USB2AX interface. The USB2AX is a small ( very small device) interface to control Dynamixel servos like the AX-12 from a computer. It plugs into a USB port and has a 3-pin Dynamixel connector to be connected to the servos. A typical use scenario is in a small mobile robot with a laptop or an embedded computer (like a Raspberry PI) as a brain and servos to move legs, arms or claws. Basic Python software control on a RaspBerry Pi. Program based on Pypot software. https://poppy-project.github.io/pypot/ With Nanoroby you don't need any Bioloid robot brackets (sorry only two in the ankle). You only need to print the plastic elements that's fix perfect with AX-12 servos. To print Nano Robi you need around 20-24 hours of printed time. Same of the things you need to mirror in a 3D design program. Please, I think is better to print only one piece and try to put the servo AX-12 inside the brackets piece before print everythink. Take one sandpaper and work with the plastic piece ultil both elements fix correctly. Then, when you know how its works you could print everything. It would be very easy but first you have to test. You have to test how the system ( bracketsAX-12) works withought screws-nuts. This system is incredible easy and simple, and let you change for example one leg/ head or body element in minuts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5B-6nG3HkAM The boots have two elements that in my case I printed separate and I have to glue, but If you have a powerfull 3D printer you can joint (union boolean ) in a 3D program desing and printed in one simple piece. I tested the printed elements of the robot and I think it have their correct thickness. My robot have more than 3 years old. It was my first expirience in 3D printed robots humanoids and it is durable. I printed with PLA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K_iI_kTAeE More pictures at;https://goo.gl/photos/Wvqcs5AgVxpczf4m8 Any problem please write on comment.
