Introduction The PID Controller is a Proportional – Integral – Derivative controller or three-term controller. It is a control loop mechanism that uses feedback and is widely used in industrial control systems and in a variety of other applications that…
Distance Sensor
Ultrasonic Sensor HC-SR04 and Arduino In this article we will see how the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor works and how to use it with Arduino. This is the most popular sensor for measuring distance. We can use it to build obstacle…
Motion Sensor
Motion Sensor Motion is the constant change of the position of an object in space. Here I will introduce you in simple words the 9-axis sensor that monitors the change of its position in the three-dimensional space, the MPU 9250.Then I…
Step Motor
Step Motor A stepper motor is a type of DC motor that rotates in steps. When an electric current is applied, the motor rotates gradually and the speed of rotation depends on the “speed” at which you apply the electric…
Control DC Motor
Control DC motor In this construction we will drive the motor using a controller and we will measure its speed, as we did in the application “DC Motor – Encoder”. To do this we will add another circuit, that of the…
DC motor – Encoder
DC motor – Encoder In this article we will make a simple construction to understand the operation of the encoder in a DC motor. The materials we will need to implement our construction are All the necessary connections will be…
DC motor
Direct current motor There are different types of motors used in small and medium sized robotics projects. These can generally be classified into categories They come in a wide variety of sizes and capabilities and are used in different sized applications.…
Servomotor – Application
Practical application It’s time to see how a servomotor connects and works.You will need some materials: 1. A servomotor e.g. MG995 2. An Arduino UNO board or compatible 3. An empty Arduino UNO board on which the connections will be made…
Servo
What is Servo? Servo is a general term for a closed loop control system.A closed loop system uses a feedback signal to adjust the speed and direction of an engine and to achieve the desired result, for example placing the…
