Abstract

This is the session 1 of the 2013 Microbotics Summer Workshop organized by the Electronic Technology department at University of Malaga. In this session, a printable modular snake robot, consisting of 9 modules is assembled and the main locomotion principles are presented.

BILL of Materials

  • 10 Repyz pro modules, already assembled
  • 3 Skymega boards, Arduino compatibles. These boards are used only during the session 1 for showing the different locomotion gais. In the following session the students had to program the EZ430-RF2500 boards, connected to some extension boards that include connectors for the servos and the sensors.
  • 3 battery holders (for 4 AAA batteries) already assembled
  • 3 pairs of mounting brackets for attaching the battery holders to the modules
  • 60 M3x10 mm bolts
  • 60 M3 nuts

Software

Before using this software, make sure you have installed the Ardusnake Library

Unimod_test1.ino Example 1: different oscillations of 1 module. The oscillation changes when the test button is pressed
Unimod_test2.ino Example 2: Oscillation of 2 modules. The phase difference is changed when the test button is pressed
wave.ino Example 3: The wave. 9 independent modules are oscillation so that a wave is generated
pp_test.ino Example 4: Locomotion of the pitch-pitch minimal configuration. When the test button is pressed, the gait is changed
pyp_gaits.ino Example 5: Locomotion of the pitch-yaw-pitch minimal configuration. When the test button is pressed, the gait is changed
py6.ino Example 6: Locomotion of a 6 module pitch-yaw snake
