https://www.teachengineering.org/makerchallenges/view/cub-2216-servo-arm-arduino-serial-communication-protocol
- computer, Windows or Mac
- Arduino software; download from https://www.arduino.cc/en/software
- SparkFun RedBoard or Arduino Uno microcontroller and programming cable; an Arduino Inventor’s Kit is recommended (some of its many components are the items listed below), at SparkFun
- breadboards
- 10k-ohm resistors
- 180-degree servos; one comes with the Arduino Inventor’s Kit recommended above—the generic sub-micro size servo from SparkFun, or obtain higher-quality servos such as the Hitec HS-422 standard size from SparkFun
- 5V voltage regulator from SparkFun; only needed if you plan to control more than two servos with one Arduino
- 9V battery; only needed if you plan to control more than two servos with one Arduino
- Popsicle sticks
- hot glue gun and hot glue sticks
