Hardware Installation

Chessboard Installation​

Attach QR codes to the bottom corners of the chessboard. Image

Attach QR codes to the top corners of the chessboard cap. Image

Place the side of the chessboard with QR codes facing the robotic arm on the chessboard base. Image

Fasten the screws on the chess piece rack. Image

Robotic Arm Installation​

Screw hole position map Image

Secure the robotic arm to the base using screws. Image

Retrieve the chess-playing device and connectors; note the small fixed structure on the device here. Image

Assemble them together using screws. Image

Connect the LEGO parts and the camera together. Image

Install the assembled camera module and chess-playing module on the robotic arm. Note: Pay attention to the installation direction as shown in the reference to the robotic arm's rotation marker. Image

Connect the cable from the chess-playing module to the robotic arm. Image

Slightly loosen the screws on the side of the chess-playing module. Image

Insert the chess bucket and tighten it. Image

Position the robotic arm correctly, connect the power supply; (the joints of the robotic arm will lock after powering up). Image

At this point, the hardware installation of the robotic arm is complete.

Communication Connection​

M5 Version​

The main body of the robotic arm and the camera need to be connected to the PC, with the camera connected to the computer via USB and the robotic arm requiring a Type-C interface cable connection to the computer.

Ensure that "Atom: OK" is displayed on the robotic arm's screen.

Pi Version​

The installation process for the Pi version of the robotic arm is similar to that of the 280 version, with the only difference being that there is no need to connect to the host computer via a Type-C cable. Additionally, the camera module needs to be connected to the USB port on the robotic arm.

MyArm​

MyArm的安装方式与280类似，需要注意的是相机-下棋装置与机械臂的连接位置略有变化，

同样的，相机需要插在机械臂本体后方的USB插孔上
