Product description: MyCobot M5 - 6-axis arm robot - M5Stack version
MyCobot M5 is the world' s smallest and lightest six-axis arm robot, a collaboration between two companies - Elephant Robotics and M5Stack. It consists of two main modules - M5Stack Core Basic and M5Stack Atom. Built-in servos are responsible for movement in different axes. It provides great fun and stimulates the imagination and allows to implement many interesting projects. It can be used, among others, as a kitchen assistant, workshop assistant or teaching assistant.
We also offer a MyCobot Pi arm robot, which is controlled by a popular Raspberry Pi 4B module.
The final landing of your robot is entirely up to you - you can shape it in various ways.
Integrated and compact
MyCobot is designed as an integrated module. It has a lightweight, compact design and weighs just 850g. The body structure is compact and has a designer look. The small number of mounted parts means that the body can be quickly disassembled and assembled once again - this time in a completely different way. Built-in servos allow the robot to rotate in up to 6 axes.
Lego Connector and Eco Friendly MyCobot M5
At the base and at the top of MyCobot M5 there are Lego Connectors. Thanks to them it is possible to connect a wide range of miniature devices. The possibilities of the robot are then practically limited only by our imagination. What is more, MyCobot M5 robot was made of environmentally friendly materials.
Performance and built-in modules
The robot has been equipped with 6 super efficient servos with quick response, low inertia and extremely smooth rotation. Thanks to them, it is possible to achieve truly astonishing results. Moreover, the robot is built with two popular developer modules produced by M5Stack, which are the heart of the whole robot. We are talking about M5Stack Core in the Basic version and M5Stack Atom (with RGB LEDs). Using the built-in screen and LEDs, the current work is presented and the scenario performed by the robot.
The two most popular M5Stack developer modules are responsible for the operation of myCobot M5.
The myCobot M5 arm robot is programmed using a graphical editor.
Block programming and ROS support
All M5Stack modules are programmed using the UIFlow graphical editor, which relies on block programming. The same is true for MyCobot M5, for which the M5Stack Core and M5Stack Atom development modules are responsible. All this makes programming the MyCobot robot really simple and easy for anyone, even a beginner. You can also use RoboFlow, an industrial robot software from Elephant Robotics that supports many Arduino functional modules, and the open-source ROS system.
myStudio Platform
The comprehensive myStudio platform is designed for myRobot and myCobot robots. It has a number of features that are useful when using robots. With myStudio you can, among other things:
- Perform software upgrades
- Read video tutorials on how to use your robot
- Get information on maintenance and repair
myStudio platform for myCobot and myRobot robots.
Working range and motion in 6 individual axes.
Working range and motion in 6 axes
MyCobot M5 can move in 6 axes thanks to the built-in servos at the end of the joints. The movement range of J1 is -160° to +160°. The arm span is 350 mm and the working radius is 280 mm.
Applications of the MyCobot M5
MyCobot M5 is compact yet powerful. It easily adapts to different types of scenarios and applications and can support secondary development of cross-platform software. It also finds applications in projects such as scientific research and education, smart home applications, lightweight design and commercial construction.
Kitchen assistant - can take bread out of the microwave and put it on a plate.
Ideal workshop helper - myCobot can work as a "third hand" handing out tools.
Teaching assistant - simulates sorting and operating industrial robots.
In combination with the M5StickT module and a thermal imaging camera, it measures body temperature.
