Dr. Raghu Machiraju is the co-founder and CEO of aBioBot and Professor of Bioinformatics and Computer Science and Engineering at The Ohio State University. His primary research interest is in developing methods of integrative genomics for cancer subtyping and biomarker discovery that examine data concurrently from histology images, proteomics, and high throughput sequencing. We spoke about his…
“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…
From April 19 through the month of May, the Liberty Science Center in Jersey City will be teaming up with the Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken for a new exhibit: one of the “fastest-produced, full-upper-torso, 3D-printed robots in the world.” The robot – which can move, swivel, raise its arms, pick-up items and wiggle…
Open source isn’t just changing the way we interact with the world, it’s changing the way the world interacts back with us. Case in point: open source robotics. Hardware projects: A robot is a physical thing, and therefore, both its code and its hardware are subject to licensing. Fortunately, there are a number of open…
The “one man band” of the open source hardware robotics solution. With this shield, making your own robot is plain sailing! The DynamixShield is an electronics board that fits onto an Arduino Due microcontroller to give you the ability to control Dynamixel smart servos and regular servos, while also providing numerous Grove and RobotGeek connectors. Grove and…
Liatris is an open-source hardware and software project (led by roboticist Mark Silliman) that does away with vision completely. Instead, you can determine the identity and pose of slightly modified objects with just a touchscreen and an RFID reader. It’s simple, relatively inexpensive, and as long as you’re not trying to deal with anything new, it…
Formula AllCode is a robotics course which includes a high specification, Bluetooth enabled robot. The project consists of: The Formula AllCode robot itself A FREE PDF course in robotics Accessories used to learn including graphical mat and maze walls The robot can be used with hosts including Windows, MAC, Raspberry Pi, Android and iPhone…
Directly from Kickstrter, an amusing project on open source modular robotics: GroBotz are modular robots that are controlled with a multi-platform App. You can quickly and easily build fun inventions with the snap together faces, modules and other components. With GroBotz you can build robots, games, toys, cars, musical instruments and countless other designs. GroBotz…
Create your own 3d printed robot with Pi Tank open source robot, using Raspberry Pi and Microsoft Kinect: Among other applications for 3D printing that have truly taken off into industries of their own – robotics – and more specifically, open source robotics, are among the most popular. Unsurprisingly, 3D printing fits perfectly into open…
