“5 DOF robotic arm using an Arduino Yun, Blynk app as the control interface and Matlab to implement the forward kinematics. This is my first robotic arm with the following features: 5DOF robot, actually 4 if we exclude the gripper; the brain is an Arduino Yun with IoT capabilities; the control interface is built in Blynk app; forward kinematic are implemented in Matlab using the Robotics Toolbox; a new library that I wrote which realizes a smooth motion; I am very happy with the result. Therefore, I would like to share with you my experience and how to build it.”
