Hey,

Check out our NEW videos and comment on our ping pong robotics project. Our goal is to make our robot intelligent and cost effective. I am proud to say that I purchased several products for my project from Pololu.

Click here to view our videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/ModuPong?feature=mhee

The ModuPong channel is about a modular robotics system that tracks a ping pong ball in real-time. In addition, we cover in this channel how the system predicts and responds in less than 130ms.

Please tell me if you have any ideas on how we could make our system better. Cheaper and faster would be great! :slight_smile:

Thanks,

John Milton

Thanks for sharing, John! I saw that you used a Maestro servo controller. Did you use any other Pololu parts?

In addition to that item, I purchased 16 servos and a few other items for a few hundred dollars. That is it.

Check out the servos in the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcqffX0tP3o&feature=context-cha&playnext=1&list=PL8A790FC30FE6C5A1

Thanks for the question. Please tell me if you want more details.
