- Animatronics
- Mechatronics Art
Up to 19 servos if used with a Arduino Mega. 10 sensors connections. 1 PIR sensor connection. 1 NeoPixel ring connection. Connection for i2C ready. Can be chained through RX/TX.
Note: Unsoldered set, without components
When the parts are on backorder,it can take up to 30 days before shipping is done.
Description
The Nervo board was developed by Marten de Groot and Leon van der Horst.
What is it?
It is an Arduino-compatible shield for Uno or Mega that allows you to connect all the servos of one side of InMoov robot. If you are building the complete robot, you actually will need two of these sets.
This board can also be used if you are only building the hand, or just the head. Each breakout board is dedicated with a part name.
Note: These boards are cut with my CNC for now, because we haven’t found a low cost solution for small series.
The set contains:
1 x Set of Nervo boards( Featured Picture)
The set only contains: 1 shield board, 11 mini breakout boards.
Compatible with:
-Arduino Uno, Mega, Duelaminove…Check for similar size board specifications.

Hi im new to the Inmoov project so before i decided to start making one i tried to do as much research as i could ( meaning to watch as many videos as i can ) and read all the information from this web site. When i first read about the nervo board i thought why would i need this. and then after watching the videos i occurred to me, now what would i do with all those wires going to the arduino and I used two megas so I would be ready for those legs, it reminds me of when the spaghetti exploded in the kitchen when i tried to pressure cook it (DON’T ASK ) Geil and his group were thinking when made those. They are so easy to build because ALL of the instructions are on this web site and then is makes more of a plug and play project. Shipping was fast and all of the parts came in as stated One thing, make sure you buy two sets because everybody says I will build only part of Inmoov and then end up making the whole thing Except Legs hint hint and it takes more than one set. I bet when those legs come i can use the rest on them! Also dont forget to get the three stl files to mount them. Remember its for a good cause How else can they get funding to make those legs
on a serious note they work and will help in your build of Inmoov. Buy them you can’t go wrong!

At first I wanted to design my own board, but I realized that this would take to much time. The Nervo board are high quality boards. I am very happy with them (You need two sets for the inMoov). The boards came quickly and where well packed. The instruction on the website is clear enough to get you started.
Hello, the store provides invoice of products ??
Oups, not yet, unfortunately…
I’m building a complete InMoov and using MyRobotLab, so the logical choice is to use the Nervo rather than develop a less effective, probably more expensive solution from scratch. If you want to do your own thing, that’s fine, but it helps a whole lot to understand how something was designed and is supposed to work before you blaze your own trail. The Nervo board is part of the design and it will truly simplify the wiring and operation of your bot. One Nervo board will handle the head, neck eyes and stomach plus one arm and hand including sensors. It looks like two Nervo boards will handle both arms and all current systems, probably including variants like the 3-axis head.
Assembling the boards was a little monotonous, but not at all difficult. It took me maybe 1.5 hours. The hardest thing was probably splitting the right-angle break-away headers. Fortunately, there are few extras. Read through the instructions on the web site, lay out the boards and dry-fit the parts and then read the instructions again.
Go ahead and buy some (3mm) LEDs and resistors because they look pretty cool and tell you the power is on. If you have not done a lot of circuit board soldering, there are plenty of good guides out there on YouTube and elsewhere. If you don’t already have a soldering station and are someplace that uses 110V, just order a Stahl STSSVT for about $21. I use .015″ (.38 mm) silver solder (62/36/2 from Radio Shack). .025″ is common but thinner is better. And get some desoldering wick just to be safe.
I’m about to order my second Nervo board and am really looking forward to getting everything Mooving.
salut Gael je viens d acheter et de recevoir le kit nervo board qui est tres bien fait je doit dire
mes je voulais savoir je compte me servir de deux carte arduino due (car j ai lu que s ete mieux pour la robotique plus rapide )donc est ce que j ai besoin dde deux kit nervo pour tout faire fonctionner merci
Bonjour Martin,
Pour faire fonctionner InMoov partiellement (coté gauche par exemple), il vous faut un kit Nervo Board. Pour faire fonctionner le robot entier, il vous faut deux kit Nervo Board. Les kits sont prévues pour montage sur carte Arduino Uno et Mega. Je n’ai pas testé sur une due mais si celle -ci est compatible cela ne devrait pas poser de souci.
Bonjour Gaël,
Je vois pour les résistances qu’il faut: 4x Resistor 470 ohm mais dans le tuto je vois résistance de 4700 Ohms
Merci encore super pratique la vente de la carte mais faudrait rajouter les câbles
Pour l’instant j’en ai pris qu’une mais j’ai l’intention de prendre une deuxième à quand le renouvellement du stock
Cordialement,
Bonjour Sylvain,
En fait les cartes sont en stock, mais comme je suis en deplacement, je ne peux gerer les commandes et envois, c’est pourquoi je les laisse “out of stock” jusqu’a mon retour.
C’est une resistance 470 ohm qu’il faut.

Hi Gael,
Want to buy Nervo board…every country on the list at checkout, but not mine…South Africa. Help
Hello, I want to buy 2 pcs Nervo boards for full body. But my country does not support Paypal(Turkey). I have the Credit card (Mastercard). Is there anything we can do about it? Worst scenario; I would like to ask an abroad friend buy and send. Thank you for attention.
Hello,
We were trying the paypal sandbox just when you tried to place your order, therefore you couldn’t pay with your credit card.
Please try again, it should be okay now.
Best regards,
Hi, I read through the building part but ı couldnt find why we need two of Nervo Board. Could you please tell me the reason of it? Thank you
Hello, each side of the body requires a Nervo Board. Like the human brain, it has two sides.
You can see the map for pin connection.

bonjour
je viens de recevoir ma commande uniquement les planches ou puis-je trouver les manquant c’est a dire toutes les connectiques? car pour moi je devais tous souder moi même mais je ne sais pas ou chercher exactement les autres parties comme les connecteur à souder mâle femelle ?
merci d’avance pour la réponse
Hi.
How can I buy the Nervo Card with a credit card? Paypal is closed in Turkey…
Hi Gale,
I placed an order for Nervo boards on July 28th and received email from you with tracking number LG078866359FR when I check to see status it says there is no information on shipment. My order number is 12625. Thanks for any help you can provide.
