Kinect-based Servo Control
This project explores techniques for real-time control of servo motors using the Kinect for Windows sensor.
Steps
Step #1:
Next
- The first phase of this project is to demonstrate basic servo control using a Kinect sensor. Ultimately this project will include some interesting voice-recognition commands for controlling a robotized webcam. In the first iteration, the webcam is tie-wrapped to a couple of inexpensive servos that are in turn tie-wrapped together to provide two-axis positioning. The control circuit is a breadboarded voltage-to-PWM driven by two 12-bit ADCs on a USB-based data acquisition board. The software is written in C# using the Kinect for Windows v1.0 SDK.
