This project involves the creation of an autonomous robot arm using Arduino and embedded systems to move objects from one location to another. The robot arm is designed to operate independently but can also be controlled using an Xbox controller. This project is part of IEEE HKN and is sponsored by the organization. My role in this project is the software team lead.
An Arduino Mega is used since it has enough i/o pins needed for this project.
Pyfirmata is an embedded systems software that allows Arduino to be controlled using Python instead of Arduino C.
Pygame is the Python library used to integrate the Xbox controller.
Tkinter is used to make a nice GUI for wireless IoT control.
