Description
Summary:This project involves designing and developing a manual robot gripping mechanism for Robocon according to its theme. In designing the circuit potentiometer is used as the main component in controlling the gripper movement so it will be stable to perform its task in Robocon competition. The microcontroller used in this project is the 8-bit PIC16F877A. The potentiometer will act as a sensor and send signal to microcontroller within define angle and voltage. The process of sending signal from potentiometer to microprocessor involves the usage of an analog to digital converter for the microprocessor only process the data in digital. To realize this, the internally embedded ADC in PIC16F877A used. The gripper will always be in stable condition as the potentiometer control its position during any condition.
