Firmware Description
The myCobot 320 robot consists of three controller parts: Basic (a small screen with buttons at the base), Pico (a chip inside the flat Type-C interface on the base), and Atom (the LED light board at the robot's end-effector).
The Basic controller is responsible for handling external interactions, converting data into information that the robot can recognize. So you can use USB Line Connect computer By Basic Type-C Port. (On the left side of the screen.)
The Pico controller manages robot motion algorithms, joint control, and bottom IO control. (No connection is required for normal use.)
The Atom controller is in charge of processing data information from the tool interface and IO control. Together, these three components collaborate to ensure the proper functioning of the robot. (No connection is required for normal use.)

| v2.3 | 1. Drag teaching 2. Zero calibration 3. Communication (serial port, wifi, Bluetooth communication) 4. Information viewing (joint connection status, firmware version) |
basic all function, the overall use effect is better. Optimization content: 1. Zero calibration, only need to calibrate once, fully relax when entering (with damping), fully relax during single joint calibration 2. Drag teaching: recording is completed It will be powered on automatically, and the LED light at the end will turn yellow during recording and turn green when recording ends; 3. The transponder will not fall when it exits communication. |
1. This version of atom needs to be burned to v5.0 2. The servo needs to support synchronous reading and writing 3. Pico is burned to V1.2 or V1.3 (with damping function) | 2022 device - so far |
