## Description

Product description starter robot arm miniArm is an open-source robotic arm for beginners. Built upon Atmega328 and compatible with Arduino, it boasts a 6-channel knob controller, Bluetooth module, high-precision digital servos, and all high-performance hardware, with secondary development interfaces for sensor expansions. For Arduino Compatibility Compatible with Arduino hardware interfaces and Arduino IDE. Open-source code with detailed comments is provided for your development. Dynamic Control with Knob Control robotic arm joint movements quickly through the knob potentiometer, immersing yourself in the seamless operation of the robotic arm. APP Control Take command of miniArm effortlessly through app, allowing you to execute desired actions with the tap of a button or the swipe of a slider. Offline Motion Editing Record robotic arm motions swiftly using the knob potentiometer and buttons. This feature allows offline motion editing and operation. Anti-blocking Servo Built-in stall protection algorithm ensures the servo won't burn out due to blockage or collision, significantly extending its lifespan. Support AI Vision Module miniArm can be expanded with the ESP32Cam module to unlock most creative vision applications. Noted: ESP32Cam Only Included in Standard Kit. Built-in Bluetooth Module Boundless Creativity Expand the capabilities of miniArm with avariety of sensors and unlock endless possibilities for your project. Sonic Ranging You can position obstacles in front of the glowing ultrasonic module of miniArm and then move the obstacle toward miniArm. The robot will respond differently, and its RGB light will change based on the distance from the obstacle. (Noted: Glowing ultrasonic sensor Only Included in Standard Kit.) Pose Control Utilize an acceleration sensor to detect the pose, which in turn regulates the gripping and placing actions of the robotic arm. (Noted: Acceleration sensor Only Included in Standard Kit.) Sonic Target Grabbing When the glowing ultrasonic module of miniArm detects an object, the buzzer on the expansion board will emit a sound, and RGB light turn green. Then, you can place a ball in the center of the robotic arm, prompting the robot to grasp the ball and initiate rotation to the left side to release it. Touch Grabbing You can activate the miniArm, turn it on and start controlling it by touching the touch sensor's metal plate. Touch the robotic arm to pick up and place the block. At the same time, you can also control the color change of the RGB light. (Touch sensor Only Included in Standard Kit.)

Review: A Fantastic Learning & Hobby Engineering Product - I’ve been working with the Robotic Arm, and I absolutely love it. The build quality is solid, the servos are very accurate and responsive, and the programming options make it a great platform for both beginners and hobby engineers who want to dive deeper into robotics. Setup is straightforward, and it’s easy to expand with custom add‑ons. For example, I added a 4x20 LCD display using the SCL and SDA pins. Just a tip for fellow builders: be careful with A4 & A5, since those are tied to I²C — it works beautifully once you map it correctly. To give others a head start, here’s the hardware I/O map for my configuration: Uno 6CH Knob Shield V1.1 I/O Map (included with the base kit): Gripper Servo(0): Pin 7 Wrist Servo(1): Pin 6 Elbow Servo(2): Pin 5 Shoulder Servo(3): Pin 4 Base Servo(4): Pin 3 Aux Servo(5) (added): Pin 2 Red Pushbutton: Pin 8 Yellow Pushbutton: Pin 9 Open: Pin 10 Small Buzzer: Pin 11 Open: Pin 12 Smart LED: Pin 13 Pot 0: Ain0 Pot 1: Ain1 Pot 2: Ain2 Pot 3: Ain3 Pot 4: Ain4 (SDA/I²C data overrides analog input) Pot 5: Ain5 (SCL/I²C clock overrides analog input) LCD 4x20: SCL & SDA (added LCD // note uses same pins A4 & A5) The included tutorials and software make it easy to get started, but there’s plenty of room to customize. If you’re looking for a robot arm that balances affordability, functionality, and fun, this is a fantastic choice. It’s not a gadget; it’s a hands‑on learning tool that sparks creativity and problem‑solving. Highly recommended for anyone curious about robotics and Arduino Uno programming.
Review: Quality build - After building one myself and coding it up to ChatGPT i bought one for my son to learn mechanics and electronics.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great kit with a very weak tutorial book
*by B***E on October 27, 2024*

The kit's hardware has an excellent quality. All the parts are well made, robust and have a great finish. I was really pleased and surprised with the quality of the hardware. The software works very well, is easy to operate and very interesting. However, unfortunately, the tutorials explaining how the software works are extremely weak and lacking in detail. The explanations are extremely superficial, making the kit completely inappropriate for anyone who does not have advanced knowledge of Arduino programming. This goes against the educational purpose of the kit, which is to use an open source program to provide learning. It is a shame that this happens with this type of kit. I had the same problem with another chinese kit. I have intermediate knowledge of Arduino programming and I am having great difficulty deciphering and understanding how the programs in this kit work. It is a shame, because it is truly a high-quality product, but if you want to learn programming, this kit is not for you. It is a product for advanced programmers and developers with a lot of experience. The manufacturer could dedicate more time and attention to tutorials explaining the programming lines, how the functions work, the techniques used, etc., so that the user can develop their skills. That's my opinion.
