EvoArm
A desktop-sized 3+2-DOF 3D-printable robot arm built around Dynamixel smart servos, designed by Ali Shug. Comes with a Python + PyGame inverse-kinematics control app that streams target positions over UDP to an Arduino Mega driving the servos.
Specifications
- DOF: 3 (base swing + main arm + forearm) + 2 (wrist/end-effector)
- Servos: 3× Dynamixel AX-12 or AX-18A (arm) + 2× XL-320 (effector)
- Controller: Arduino Mega 2560 with multiplexed TTL lines via 74LS241
- Kinematics: Python PyIK app (PyGame) with interpolation + reachable-volume visualization
- End-effector: flat touchpad (level with floor, 2 extra DOF)
- Origin: based on LiteArm i2 by Armatec (Thingiverse 480446)
- License: CC-BY-SA 3.0

Getting started
Clone the repo, print the STLs, source Dynamixel servos + Arduino Mega, wire up the 74LS241 multiplexer, flash the Arduino sketch, and run the PyIK app. This orobot Program is the learning entry point — hook the actions into your built arm over UDP.
