Voice Controlled 4 DOF Robotic Arm

Cheap robotic arm (less than $100) that utilizes a J.A.R.V.I.S. style frontend

Built by Elias Nicolas

This project is a 4 degree-of-freedom robotic arm, designed in Onshape and manufactured through my school's Makerspace. It is controlled through a voice recognition web interface. The arm itself is built around an Arduino Uno and a PCA9685 servo driver, with a modular wrist design that can hold tools like screwdrivers. It is very accessible and low-cost as I choose to use the cheapest parts available, however this results in weight distribution and wrist mobility that is lacking. I hope to expand on the project by scaling it up, using better motors, and implement cycloidal gearboxes.
