can i build this project ? i have arduino how i can build it ?

thanks

This is a python API that communicates with the Arduino due device, and the Arduino due runs G2core as a firmware.
Simply go to the release page, download the latest version and import the library.
The first step, is to set up the firmware and call the .update_firmware() method.
Also check the Wiki page for the instruction

hi smhty

is the pin map same for arduino due + g2core ?
and can i use g2core firmware from sythethos repository ?

thanks

One more question how to measure bx and bz ?

Thanks
Rizki

@qiwalker We have a costume GPIO pinout, different than the default g2core release.
Yes, you can upload g2core to the board.

bx and bz are both calculated in Inch.
To measure bx and bz, put the robot in 0 position (all joints are zero), and
bx: The distance from the origin of the robot to the center of j1 axis in x direction.
bz: The distance from the origin of the robot to the center of j1 axis in z direction.

Obviously if we define by in similar manner, it is going to be 0.
Here is a link to Dorna help page, and coordinate system:

@smhty

is there any documentation for pin mapping ?

oke thanks for your explanation for bx and bz, this is awesome project!

thanks

Hi @smhty

Is there any documentation about the process to connect the arm and be controlled by a serial port.
I try to use firefly (http://www.fireflyexperiments.com/forum#!/firmata-programming) - (app for rhino/grasshopper) in the process.

In another case, How can I use the log of the API, to communicate back and forth with the robot? of course, using the GI of Rhino and grasshopper

Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I am inspired by your project!
Can I get information from you about the location or mapping of pins on the Arduino Due for connecting motors?
Or could you elaborate on how your GPIO pinout differs from the standard g2core costume?

Thanks in advance!
