This project could be separated to three parts.
- The first part is microcontroller Renesas RX62T;
- The second part is the robot be controlled by 10 motors;
- The last part is computing engine (laptop) connected to Kinect;
All motors is be controlled by microcontroller through PWM.
The microcontroller communicates to PC via RS232.
Please refer following overview picture:
The microcontroller of this project is using Renesas RX62T and related
specifications or sample code could be found on Renesas website.
The following diagram is what this project using:
The computing engine will gather user's motion through Kinect using Kinect's SDK.
Refer following pictures to know how it works:
The important part of robot is its arms.
Thus, feel free to customize robot's body.
