PlutarcoRobot è un progetto in continua evoluzione nato alla fine del 2001.
Durante gli anni è stato rielaborato varie volte per migliorarne le caratteristiche man mano che la mia esperienza in materia di robotica veniva affinata.
In queste r...
Plutarco gearbox and gear key-slot creation detail
In this simple page I've collected some photos of gear used in Plutarco robot and their modification to be used in gearbox creation. I received gear without tipycal key-slot used to block gear on the shaft and I've created it with my lathe and a particular ...
Nvidia Jetson TK1 - Power supply connector hacking
Some photos of a little hacking on Nvidia Jetson TK1...
EasyTK1_IO V2
Nvidia Jetson TK1 is a very interesting platform for the heart of my robot Plutarco with a Tegra K1 SOC containing NVIDIA Kepler GPU with 192 CUDA Cores and NVIDIA 4-Plus-1™ Quad-Core ARM® Cortex™-A15 CPU .
EasyTK1_IO Jetson TK1 voltage level performance test
Before the test of EasyTK1_IO on Jetson TK1 I prefered to do a instrumental test of Jetson TK1 voltage level adapter ( EasyTK1_IO ) to analize & solve potentially-destructive problem.
uNavSB carrier for uNav Board
µNavSB ( or uNavSB ) is a carrier for uNav board developed with OfficineRobotiche's team with some improvements for an quick usage of µNav in a robot.
uNav to RoboPonte adapter Shield
Some year ago I've designed RoboPonte , a HiPower H-Bridge and now I need to use it with uNav. This is a simple adapter scheme: With this shield you can use RoboPonte with uNav board. It can be realized with uMatrix Board, a little PCB usefull...
New encoders for Plutarco robot motors
During the brushes replacement I damaged encoders... so I decided to replace them with AMT102-V used in other my project.
