Parallel robot project

Project Introduction:

Stewart platform is a type of parallel robot that has six prismatic actuators, commonly hydraulic jacks or electric actuators, attached in pairs to three positions on the platform's baseplate, crossing over to three mounting points on a top plate. Devices placed on the top plate can be moved in the six degrees of freedom in which it is possible for a freely-suspended body to move. These are the three linear movements x, y, z, and the three rotations pitch, roll, yaw.

Project Details

Mechanical Design For Stewart Platform

We designed the platform using servo motors because they are easier to find and cheaper than linear actuators. The range of motion is a bit more limited, but we were designing for expressiveness and not so much for range.

PCB Design For Stewart Platform

We designed the pcb to control stewart platform and communicate with computer.
