Abstract: The present disclosure provides a servo output shaft angle calibration method and a robot using the same. In the method, when a servo output shaft rotational angle calibration instruction is obtained, an output shaft of a servo is controlled to move in a preset rotational direction, a current angle of the output shaft of the servo is obtained when it detects that the output shaft of the servo has rotated to an end point and has a stalling, and then a preset end point angle is updated as the current angle of the output shaft of the servo, so as to take the current angle of the output shaft of the servo as the new end point angle, thereby realizing the calibration of the end point angle of the output shaft of the servo. In this manner, the entire calibration process requires no manual intervention.

Abstract: The present disclosure is provides a servo control method as well as an apparatus and a robot using the same. The method includes: obtaining a teeth force reduction multiple of a gear of a servo; creating a voltage queue based on the teeth force reduction multiple; calculating a target loading voltage corresponding to a current moment based on a voltage queue; and applying the target loading voltage on a motor of the servo, wherein the target loading voltage is for driving the motor of the servo to rotate. Through the above-mentioned method, the loading voltage can be effectively reduced when the servo is started, thereby protecting teeth of the gear of the servo and increasing the service life of the servo.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a servo driving method, device, and robot thereof. The method includes: obtaining a current voltage of a power supply of the motor, if a control instruction for driving the servo is detected; obtaining a duty ratio of a PWM signal generated according to the control instruction and the current voltage, if the current voltage is not equal to a preset voltage; calculating a target duty ratio based on a ratio between the preset voltage and the current voltage and the duty ratio; and outputting a target PWM signal according to the target duty ratio. Which controls the motor to drive the servo through the obtained target PWM signal, and realizes that the rotation speed of the motor will not become unstable due to the change of the output voltage of the power supply during the operation of the motor, thereby avoiding the instability of the servo.
