Air Hockey Robot EVO (SMARTPHONE CONTROLLED - OPEN SOURCE ROBOT)

thingiverse

The New Air Hockey Robot EVO is Here! Perfect for Learning Robotics, Visual Recognition, and Having Fun! This exciting new robot is based on our first Air Hockey Robot, but it's much easier to set up and deploy. Now, you can control it with your own smartphone using the free APP, which also lets you manually control the robot. The EVO version is faster, more modifiable, and shares electronics and ancillary elements with other jjRobots like the iBoardbot, B-robot EVO, and Sphere-O-bot. We've designed this new Air Hockey Robot EVO based on standard parts of a typical 3D printer, such as NEMA 17 stepper motors, DEVIA control Boards, belts, bearings, and rods. It features a medium-sized air hockey table with dimensions of 80 x 42 cm (31.5 x 16.5 in) and a two-motor X-Y movement design. Get everything you need to build your Air Hockey Robot EVO with the AIR HOCKEY ROBOT EVO KIT, including all the hardware and assembly guide. Learn about robotics, visual recognition, and behavioral robotics while having fun playing air hockey! The robot is controlled by your smartphone's camera, which captures data in real-time and makes decisions based on the position of the puck and the "Pusher robot." Check out our YouTube video for a better understanding of how it works!
