A mural drawing robot and a gentle introduction to 3D printing
Makelangelo is a polargraph mural drawing robot. It is intended to teach students about programming, physics, trigonometry, and electronics in a fun, goal-oriented way. Makelangelo is scalable: our test models have ranged from 30cm^2 to 300cm^2.
This project specifically deals with the firmware: the code in the brain of the robot that receives instructions and moves the motors. It pairs really well with Makelangelo, a project to give humans a pleasant GUI.
This version of the firmware is designed for using a Sanguinololu board instead of a RUMBA/AMS.
Connect the two stepper motors to the X and Y controllers (left and right respectively).
The Servo is using the following connections on the EXT connector:
- Ground
- 5V
- D12 PWM (actually D4 but there is an error on the PCB)
This is version 1.0.3. Newer versions might be available at https://www.marginallyclever.com/product/makelangelo-firmware/

Makelangelo is derived from the work of Paul Fisher. It is largely inspired by "Hektor":http://hektor.ch/ by Jürg Lehni and Uli Franke.
