Create a remote control motorized robot arm
Conclusion
We had a lot of fun and challenges making this project. Some future ideas that we thought of could include, using a Raspberry Pi instead of an Arduino module; using an ESP8266 module with a Web interface instead of Bluetooth; and adding a webcam to see what the robot sees.
Q: Why did the one armed robot cross the road? A: It wanted to get to the second hand store.
