Servo Turret--for Ultrasonic and Infrared Sensors
TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE
Complete with servo!
You get all the mechanical parts to make a compact and affordable servo-controlled rotating sensor turret. Designed for the popular Sharp GP2-series of infrared sensors, and the Parallax Ping and Devantech SRF0x ultrasonic ranging sensors. Just add the sensor and you're off!
The assembly can be mounted using standoffs, or with heavy-duty 3M Dual Lock reclosable fastener (available separately; see the Options list below). The turret works with the Devantech SRF05 and SRF08 sensors, the Parallax Ping, and other size-compatible ultrasonic sensors. Also fits the Sharp GP2-type infrared sensors.
Features:
- Custom-made PVC plastic parts -- plastic won't "ring" at high frequencies like metal brackets can
- Interchangable sensor mounting boards - included sensor mounting board works with Ping/Devantech ultrasonic or Sharp GP2-series infrared sensor
- Rubber grommet shock mounts attach the ultrasonic sensor to the turret -- helps reduce microphonic interference
- Standard-size servo with Futaba-style splined hub, with universal 3-pin plug
- All assembly hardware
- Illustrated assembly instructions (online)
The servo turret can be mounted
to most any robot base.
Optional alternate sensor mounting boards allow you to to combine an infrared and ulrasound sensor on one unit. We also provide a "blank" sensor mounting board in either of two sizes if you want to attach your own custom sensor to the turret. Small board measures approx. 1" x 2"; the large board 2" x 2"). The PVC plastic is easy to drill.
Specifications:
- Dimensions: 2.125" x 1" x 3.5".
- Weight (with servo): 2.8 ounces.
Please note: The infrared/ultrasonic sensors are NOT included. These are available from a variety of sources, and generally cost from $10 to $35 each, depending on type. The sensor mounting boards provide a mounting solution for the sensor(s) of your choice.
