Explore the creation of a Raspberry Pi Pico-powered SMARS robot in this 50-minute video tutorial. Learn how to build and program a Small Modular Articulated Robot System (SMARS) using MicroPython and the Raspberry Pi Pico. Discover the process of designing a custom holder board in Fusion 360, wiring up the Pico, and integrating it with the MX1805 motor driver board. Follow along as the tutorial demonstrates the robot in action and guides you through running the code. Access additional resources, including the GitHub repository for the MicroPython code and the SMARS fan website, to further enhance your understanding and implementation of this exciting robotics project.
