Minion Walk

Code for Minion biped robot from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:25470 Arduino translates RC remote signals to servo movements. Based on code published on thingiverse by Makerbot/Skimbal.

Requires Arduino Button library from http://arduino.cc/playground/Code/Button

CHANGES

  1. Replaced pulseIn with interrupt based RC decoding based on: http://rcarduino.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/how-to-read-multiple-rc-channels-draft.html
  2. Calibration mode to set transmitter throttle/stearing range
  3. Proportional throttle control (impacts delay in main loop)
  4. Automatically go to rest if no RC signal received in 100ms.

TODO

  1. Reimplement proportional throttle to impact move increments
  2. Wrap RC code in class
  3. Add buzzer an play Imperial March when it walks
  4. Allow to calibrate servo positions
