slowWave

A simple program made with complex commands! This example introduces "while" and "robotJog". Sometimes it's desirable or required to move slowly. This example shows how to control the robots movement speed.

Commands Used

robotMove(x,y);

robotJog(x,y);

while(logical test);

Cut and paste code:

#include <robot.h>    //Tell your arduino to go get the custom mimicArm code
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
robotActivate(); //Tell the robot that Arduino will be sending it commands
}

void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
robotMode(arduino); //Put the robot in Arduino command mode

robotMove(1,127); //Center the robot on it's base
robotMove(2,127);   //Put the robots 'shoulder' in a natural position
robotMove(3,90);   //Put robot 'elbow' at botom of wave

//move robot to top of wave
while(robotPosition(3) < 200){
    robotJog(3,1); //jog robot up 1 unit until reaching 200
    delay(10);
}

//Move robot backt to bottom of wave
while(robotPosition(3) > 90){
    robotJog(3,-1);
    delay(10);
}
}
