Robot Servo Calibration and Sweep with Arduino IDE, ideal for Otto DIY biped walks and tournaments
Check how to calibrate your servo motors, and learn how servos work, then we explore the sweep code and how to program easily using Arduino IDE.
The following video covers some of observations on the metal-geared servos used in Otto robots. I have written a short Blockly calibration program and an equivalent sketch which allows me to calibrate using microseconds.
I also show two non-blocking ’sweep’ programs that will allow for slow servo motion or a full sweep.
Note: Note out that care needs to be taken writing microsecond timings to the servos outside of their ’limits’. These limits were well within the mechanical end-stop so did not put the servo under undue strain (you would hear it ’groan’).
