How many of you have a Roomba Vacuum Cleaner at home? I always wanted one of these, but I never bought it. Maybe now I have another option…I can build it! The maker theking3737 created his own robotic vacuum cleaner as part of a school project. He was responsible for the hardware design, while a…
If you have a Rubik’s Cube but you never could solve it, with this nice 3d printed robot now you have the chance to do it! This 3D-printed Raspberry Pi-powered Rubik’s Cube solving robot has everything any serious robot does — arms, servos, gears, vision, artificial intelligence and a task to complete. If you want…
John Choi, founder of advanced robotics startup Choitek and Carnegie Mellon University Computer Science and Arts major, recently released a nearly 100-page Instructable on how to build a full-size, 3D printed humanoid robot that he’s dubbed ASPIR, for Autonomous Support and Positive Inspiration Robot. The massive Instructable is divided up into ten chapters, ranging from arms and legs, head and chest,…
The Critter is the fifth robot in Slant Robotics’ LittleBot family of 3D printed Arduino robots, and is a walking robot to follow the previous armed and wheeled robots. And although walking robots tend to be complex, this guy is purportedly “easy and rugged enough for kids to build while still being interesting enough for…
Researchers at University of Arizona have created a modular robot made of cardboard and a Raspberry Pi Zero for around $70. The form and movement of this little machine is made to mimic a sea turtle, and the cardboard fins can be swapped out for more durable, 3D-printed materials depending on the environment. Biologists, mechanical…
Often, the best way to learn something is to approach it in a hands-on manner. This is certainly true of robotics, though many schools have been limited by the availability and accessibility of the technology, which is often quite expensive. Fortunately, that’s where Slant Robotics comes in. With its new LittleBot 3D printed robot, the…
Roboeve team is passionate about making robots and Xpider is the result of their work. It is the smallest programmable spider robot in the world, only 3.4-inch in diameter and weights only 5.3 oz. You can easily place it on your desk and play with it anytime you want. It’s a neural network-powered spider robot that…
Thanks to a vibrant investment scene, and major government support, Korea is growing really fast. There’s been a massive startup upswing, but only about 10 percent are currently looking at markets outside Korea. Circulus, with its Pibo, is one of this 10 percent. “I think that if everyone could make their own programs in Korea,…
Erle Robotics today announced the worldwide release of its B2B robotics services aimed at industries, governments and institutions. After two years providing brains for robots and tools for developers, the announcement comes with a display of some selected public projects that they have completed. Among the success cases presented are contracts with defense agencies…
“Being able to use contributions from other people, sharing ideas and prototypes, makes it go so much faster.” Referencing another robotics company whose product was eight years in development, Langevin, creator of the robot, explained that InMoov was able to create theirs in only three, thanks to open source. “And if 3D printing hadn’t been…
