Popsicle Stick Robotic Arm with Arduino

This video tutorial guides viewers through building an Arduino-controlled robotic arm. It is divided into two main parts: the physical construction of the arm and the circuit and code used to control it. The tutorial covers materials like popsicle sticks and servo motors, discusses degrees of freedom, and offers tips on cable management and gripper design. It also explains how to use sensors like joysticks and potentiometers to control the arm, with example code provided for Arduino programming.

What materials are suggested for building a simple robotic arm?
