Arduino Servo Projects

This is essentially a continuation of my earlier book “Arduino Robotics Projects”. These

are some more advanced robotics projects and they will use a lot of servos. Some readers

have complained that the projects in the earlier book required specific toys in order to

work. That was not the intention. Instead the book was meant to teach the basics for

robotics and then to show some simple examples showing how to apply what you have

learned. This book will repeat some of what was covered in that book in case you did not

read it first.

Disclaimer: Once again the safe construction and operation of these devices is solely up to

the reader. The reader must take all safety precautions and accept all responsibility for the

safe operation of these devices. There are no guarantees implied with the circuit designs

and software programs that are found within this book.

Disclaimer 2: No two servos work exactly the same. No two robots are built exactly the

same. The software in this book may not work with your robot without some adjustment

to the servo positions in software and hardware. This is normal and should be expected.

The most important thing is for you to have lots of fun! Try out some projects in this book

and see what you like. Make your own hardware and software improvements. I am sure

you can come up with some better designs!

A common acronym that is used when referring to robots is “DOF” or “Degrees of

Freedom”. It generally refers to the amount of servo motors that are used to give the robot

mobility.
