Product Description
uHand UNO is an open-source robot hand tailored for beginners. Built upon Atmega328 and compatible with Arduino, it boasts a 6-channel knob controller, Bluetooth module, 6 anti-blocking servos, and other high-performance hardware. Additionally, it offers several interfaces reserved for sensor expansions, enhancing user flexibility for secondary development.
1) Arduino Compatibility:
Fully compatible with Arduino hardware interfaces and software compatible with Arduino Interfaces are fully compatible with Arduino, and software is compatible with the Arduino IDE. Open-source code with detailed comments are provided for your development.
2) Dynamic Control with Knob:
Control palm joint movements quickly throughthe knob potentiometer, immersing yourself in the seamless operation of the robotic hand.
3) APP Control:
Take command of uHand UNO effortlessly through app, allowing you to execute desired actions with the tap of a button or the swipe of a slider.
4) Offline Motion Editing:
Record palm motions swiftly using the knob potentiometer and buttons. This feature allows offline motion editing and operation.
2. Hardware Introduction
1) Anti-blocking Servo:
Equipped with built-in stall protection algorithm, ensuring the servo won't burn out due to blockage or collision, significantly extending its lifespan.
2) Support AI Vision Module:
uHand UNO can be expanded with ESP32Cam module to unlock a wider range of creative vision applications.
3) Built-in Bluetooth Module:
uHand UNO expansion board loads a Bluetooth interface for integration with Bluetooth module. This feature will be helpful for your project development.
4) Boundless Creativity:
Expand the capabilities of miniArm with avariety of sensors and unlock endless possibilities for your project.
3. Support Sensor Expansion
Equipped with a sensor expansion pack including Esp32-Cam vision module, glowy ultrasonic sensor, touch module, acceleration sensor and more. You can program to unleash capabilities such as visual tracking, color sorting and distance measurement
1) Sonic Ranging:
Users 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.
2) Pose Control
Utilize an acceleration sensor to detect the pose, which in turn regulates the gripping and placing actions of the robotic arm.
3) Sonic Ball Grabbing
When the glowing ultrasonic module of uHand UNO detects an object, the buzzer on the expansion board will emit a sound, and the RGB light will turn green. At this point, the user 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.
4) Finger Counting
Users can activate uHand UNO to open its hand and begin counting by touching the metal plate of the touch sensor. Once all five fingers are extended, the touch sensor can be used to close all five fingers and initiate counting once more.
4. Equipped with Al Vision Module
uHand UNO can be equipped with an ESP32-Cam module, which can realize creative functions such as color recognition and sorting, color tracking, face recognition and vision image return.
5. Somatosensory Glove Control
UHand UNO can be controlled through somatosensoryglovesThe potentiometer on he somatosensory glovescan contol the rotaton of the hand servoand the wristcan control the rotation of the gimbal servo.
