Control Multiple servo motors using Arduino and Android app








Hi are you looking to control More than one servo motor using android app, if then this is a perfect place for you to find your exact requirement.

I created an android app using MIT app inventor 2 , I created this app to control 6 servo motor using android and arduino, I have arduino uno, which has only 6 PWM pins that's the reason I created 6 servo control, If you want to control more than 6 you can use arduino Mega to do this.

Please click the link  here

what are the components you need for this?
N number of servo motors
Arduino
Android Mobile or Tab
Connecting Wires
Bluetooth Device (HC-05 or HC-06) I used HC-06 for this project

You can find the Circuit Diagram for this project above. Connect your servo according to that, If possible power the Servos and arduino separately

you can find the arduino program in the video, if you want arduino file , download here

Check the video below to know How to make mit app for controlling multiple stepper motor.

      I have every think connected and using code provided. Have 3 servos connected and initially get servos to move but after a few seconds of sliding sliders the arduino seems to reboot and disconnects. At this point I'm ready to through in the towel. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, I been away from my home , I don't have the aia fie with me, I have rechecked with mit app inventor panel where almost all the files have been missing :(, sorry about that, please check the video that I made which explained all most everything to make an app to control multiple servo.

    Hello :)
    I have two servo motors now,
    I want to let the button to control the Servo1 only,
    and let the Slider to control the Servo2 only,
    please tell me how do I design at the APP and arduino program,thanks.

      Yes, use two separate power source using common ground. Seem servos would cause current fluctuations which would cause arduino to reboot.

    Hello, well ,I use your code of arduino only for controler 3 servos and I reduced de code ,but when I copy your code on my computer some instructions of arduino as "unsigned int" are in color blue instead orange,Can you explain ,what happened ? or the ploblem is my computer?? And When I open your code my servos lost the control. it doesn't do the instruction Help me Pleaseee

    Hello my name is Cristian, thanks for the tutorial. I'm using arduino mega 2560, the connection via BT and apk is ok, but when I tried to move the servo nothing happens, is there something extra to program for arduino mega? Because I also tried to turn on a led and also it didn't work.

      JUTS IN CASE I FOUND SOME HELPFULL information about this topic, one probably reason for not sending data information to arduino is because app inventor 2 does not support my bluetooth LE (Low energy) I suposse the one that i bought is LE so that is why I can't send any data to arduino for controlling other devices. This is the page where I found this topic http://appinventor.pevest.com/?p=718

    Hello.Great project you did there. Congratz. Bun I have a q, how can I control 1 dc motor + 1 servo? Is for a project - Bluetooth control car, dc motor is for forward/backward and the servo is for direction left/right.

    because serial just can do in 1 byte so u have to multiply 256 to work in 2 byte. if u use #include i think u dont have to do this
