The design of an XY table was developed, consisting of two perpendicular axes that allow precise movement in two directions (horizontal and vertical within the plane). The structure was designed to ensure stability, repeatability, and automated control.
A 3D design of an articulated figure was developed, featuring an internal structure optimized for the integration of servo motors. The model includes dedicated slots in the arm and leg joints, allowing for the direct installation of the motors responsible for movement. The joints were designed to provide realistic mobility, while the outer shell maintains a clean and functional appearance. The design also accounts for wire routing and secure, discreet placement of electronic components.
Although the design of the XY table was successfully completed, the acquisition of the necessary components was not possible due to unforeseen constraints. To maintain progress on the project, the team moved forward with the actual 3D printing of the articulated figure.
The schematic and electronic simulation of the project's components were successfully developed, providing a comprehensive overview of the circuit architecture. This phase included the selection and integration of microcontrollers, servo motors, power supply modules, and communication interfaces. Through simulation, the behavior of the system under various operating conditions was validated, allowing for early detection of potential issues and optimization of signal flow, power distribution, and component compatibility. This robust groundwork ensures greater reliability and efficiency in the subsequent hardware implementation phase.
