01 / Under the shell

The specifications.

Hardware, build and software on one sheet. Every fact links to where we found it.

Seven is a 3-DOF robotic arm made with 3D-printed parts and SG90 servo motors, controlled by an Arduino Uno over serial. It supports manual joint control, inverse kinematics, gripper control, waypoint programming and external software integration.
