This robotic arm design features a carefully engineered body with multiple degrees of freedom in the head, arms, torso, and legs for intricate movements. Sturdy brackets allow for versatile servo mounting orientations, enhancing flexibility. The arm assembly includes custom and store-bought brackets for stability. Ball bearings are integrated to reduce friction and stress on the servo components, increasing efficiency. The hip design enables movements like leg lift, squat, push-up, and more. Detailed torque requirements and RoBoard servo specifications ensure optimal performance. Stress analysis results provide insights into bracket and assembly durability and deformation. Discover this powerful, cost-effective robotic arm solution for various applications.
