Intermediate Tutorials

Fork Lift Add-On

Fork Lift assembly, parallelogram mechanism and servo motor control

Learn how to assemble your Fork Lift add-on for Stackr and program the servo motor. This tutorial covers everything from basic servo motor control to understanding how servos work, wiring, and manipulating the fork lift mechanism with Arduino code.

Start Tutorial
Digger Add-On

Digger assembly, enhance the parallelogram mechanism and add a secondary servo motor

Learn how to assemble your Digger add-on for Stackr and program the servo motors onboard. This tutorial is an extension to the previous tutorial in understanding how servos work, wiring, and manipulating the digger mechanism with Arduino code.

Start Tutorial
Gripper Add-On

Gripper assembly, gripper mechanism and servo motor control

Learn how to assemble your Gripper add-on for Stackr and program the servo motors onboard. This tutorial is very similar to the previous tutorial in understanding how servos work, wiring, and manipulating the gripper mechanism with Arduino code. The twist is the implement actuated by the servo motors. It is a claw instead of a scoop bringing the design closer to the typical robot handle.

Start Tutorial
Lidar Add-On

Lidar assembly, how to program ToF sensor

Learn how to assemble your Lidar add-on for Stackr and program the time of flight sensor. This tutorial will introduce you to the concept of distance measurement and how to use the time of flight sensor to measure distance to objects.

Start Tutorial

These tutorials are designed to build upon each other. We recommend starting with the beginner section to understand the basics, then moving on to the intermediate section followed by the advanced section to aquire the skills to build your own robot.
