Researchers at John Hopkin’s University has been building innovative robot teaching systems using new technology. Here they use an Occulus Rift system to train the robot in a virtual environment.

Testing is essential. Testing is repetitive and boring, so humans are bad at it. Automated testing is the way to go. But what do you do when your app is on a phone or a tablet? Someone has to sit there and tap every button… until now. See video
The Three Arm Delta Robot v2 was always open source, and today I’m delighted to announce that it is finally open hardware, too. That’s right! All the custom parts are on Thingiverse. You can 3D print the arm parts, laser cut the frame, add then an arduino and some servos and some threaded rod to build your own Delta Robot.
No time? Look through our selection of Delta Robots and find a best-fit for your needs.
Still not quite right? Use our handy calculator to design your own and then contact us! We’d be glad to help make your dream come true.
Starting at 11:00 AM PST today I’ll be hosting a Google Hangout live from VHS. Eat breakfast while learning about 3D printers. The best reason to get out of bed since cartoons!
If this text is blue click to join us, too. The hangout is archived so you can watch it again. It’s like that new Norwegian “Slow TV”.
I want to add spray painting to the Makelangelo. Instead of lifting the pen off the paper it will push on the nozzle of the spray can to make a dot. Sounds simple, right? the devil is in the details. (more…)
