Educational robotics : kinematics

In this project, the objective is to build a robotic arm and design an easy to use user interface for students to understand the basic concept of Denavit-Hartenberg algorithm in robotics. It can be used as a teaching aid in stimulating student’s interests in Science and Engineering. With the user interface, students will be able to solve for the inverse kinematics problem which is to find the corresponding angles that the individual motors need to rotate when the coordinates of the end-effector are knows. The hardware used in this project are Lynxmotion AL5A and Servo To Go card. The programming software Visual Basic 6 and C++ will be used to create the end user interface.Bachelor of Engineerin
