This project features a two-axis SCARA (Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm) designed specifically to draw on a standard 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper. The arm is Bluetooth-enabled, allowing users to create drawings on their computer and transmit them wirelessly to the robot. Once received, the SCARA arm accurately replicates the digital illustration on paper using a mounted pen. This system bridges the gap between digital design and physical output, demonstrating precise motion control, Bluetooth communication, and mechanical design in a compact, user-friendly platform.
