Interfacing servomotors – Dynamixel

In mobile robotics, servomotors are widely used actuators that are used to move sensors, wheels, and robotic arms.

The Dynamixel servomotor is a smart actuator system that is exclusively used for connecting joints on a robot or mechanical structure. They are designed to be modular and daisy chained on any robot or mechanical structure for powerful and flexible robotic movements.
