Kinect & Arduino-Controlled Delta Robot

Arduino Robotics

This is a project in development for the module “Digital Ecologies”, at the Bartlett’s AAC Msc.

A Delta-Robot is controlled by a Kinect through Processing and Arduino. The movements of the performer control directly the position of the robot’s effector, and the rotation and opening of the gripper.
Once the plattform is properly calibrated (still a little rough round the edges!), several autonomous behaviours will be implemented.
