| Speech
Controlled Robotic Arm |
 |
The SCRA-01 incorporates three kits; the OWI Robotic Arm, SR-06 Speech Recognition Circuit and
the SRI-01 OWI speech interface circuit. By connecting these kits together you create a powerful speech control system capable of
controlling the OWI-Robotic Arm Trainer using voice commands.
The SR-06 speech recognition circuit allows you
to train any word(s) in any language to control
the robotic arm.
You can purchase the kits separately and build
your system slowly or purchase them bundled together.
Kits may be purchased as kits needing assembly
or assembled and tested. see prices below.

| OWI
Robotic Arm and PC Interface Kit |
 |
The OWI 007 Robotic Arm Trainer teaches basic
robotic sensing and locomotion principles while
testing motor skills as you build and control
the arm. Using the wired control one can control
the arm grab, release, lift, lower rotate wrist
and pivot sideways 350 degrees. After assembly,
one can observe the gear mechanisms through the
transparent arm's plastic. Five motors and five
joints allow for good flexibility.
The robotic arm interface kit connects OWI's 007
Robotic Arm Trainer (tm) to a personal computer,
(IBM PC or compatible). The interface connects
to the PC's serial port. The software for the
interface permits real time control and contains
a built-in interactive script writer demonstrating
computer controlled automation and animatronics.
The Robotic Arm PC Interface creates a fun way
of learning and experimenting with computer automation
and animatronics.

| Servomotor
Controllers PC & Manual Control |
 |
Servomotor Controller boards allows you to control
servomotors. We have three servomotor controller
models available. The four and five servomotor
controllers allow you to control each servomotor
independently via the onboard three-position
switches, or using a Windows 98/XP program. The
PC program allows speed control and script writing.
The eight position servomotor controller is only
PC control. PC control is through an available
USB port. Three pin headers
make it easy to connect servos - just plug them
in. Uses either a 9V battery or AC adapter. All
windows servomotor programs are available to
download, click on picture to proceed to download
page. Servomotor controller boards are available
in kit form or pre-assembled and tested, servomotors
not included but are available for purchase on
this web site.

| Touch
Tone (DTMF) Reader |
 |
Dialed phone numbers, repeater codes, control
codes, anywhere touch tones are used your TG2
will decode and store any DTMF tone it hears.
A simple hook-up to any radio speaker or phone
line is all that is required. The Flash storage
capacity of the built-in micro controller allows
the circuit to store 640-digit numbers for 10
years, even with the power turned off. The bright
8-digit display lets you scroll through the stored
numbers at your leisure. To make it easy to pick
out numbers or codes, a dash is inserted between
any group or set of numbers that were decoded
more than 3 seconds apart. Added features include
an onboard RJ11 phone jack for easier phone line
interfacing and an output latch jack offering
an external trigger source when a user specified
number ( 1 to 60 digits) matches the monitor input.
The TG2 runs on any 8 to 15 volt DC power source
and is both regulated and crystal controlled for
the ultimate in stability. Click on photograph

Wimshurst Machine |
This
machine produces large static electric sparks for
a terrific classroom demonstration. No assembly
required, simply attach the hand crank, begin cranking,
and watch in wonder as the sparks fly. Instruction
guide and helpful hints are included with each unit.
Unit consists of two high resistance 25cm plastic
discs, with equally spaced metal sectors. The discs
are supported in two rigid upright supports, rotating
in opposite directions with a hand crank. Provided
with a system of induced charge collecting brushes,
adjustable ball-ended electrodes, and cylindrical
Leyden jar capacitors for obtaining higher potentials.
Produces substantial opposite charges, which are
deposited in the capacitors and on the metal spheres.
A rapid sequence of sparks can be generated by lowering
the system capacitance (moving the metal spheres
closer together). Mounted on an insulated wooden
base.
