The Development and the Application Plan of Educational Robot Model using the Multi-Axis Arm

The purpose of this study is to develop the multi-axis arm robot(MAAR) for creative activities. For the development of the MAAR, a controller for controlling the servo motor, a operating program for moving or controlling the robot, and a assembly manual of the electrical type was developed. The results show that MAAR can be used technology program from elementary school to high school. The controller is available for multipurpose board to check and moving the servo motor. Also, the controller developed is better than commercial products because of the open source code and multi-function. The operating program can control the various motion by moving the screen bar and up to nine robot simultaneously. Students can easily assemble the MAAR by using the e-assembly manual developed by 3D. As the MAAR is consist of a series of eight different axises, it can be used not learning by curriculum at school but learning by extracurriculum. Also, students are improved the creative think for dealing with the MAAR. The MAAR can be used the various purpose like EST(Elementary School Technology), PBL(Problem-Based Learning), and field learning program for creative activities. Therefore, the development effects of the MAAR would increase students’ creativity.
