Stack of three RobotEQ MDC2250C controllers and a MW S-320-24 power supply to control a PUMA 280 arm. The arm is in its "home" position since there are no limit switches and the 2250 doesn't seem to support the index pulse calibration.
The Center for Internet and Society (CIS) once again participated in National Robotics Week, organized by the Robotics Caucus of the U.S. Congress and leading robotics companies, schools, and organizations. In connection to NRW, Stanford University held a Robot Block Party & job Fair on April 11, 2012. This event will showcased cutting edge robotics technology from throughout the Bay Area.
We are teaching a new maker art class called ‘Robot World’, to help children create their own artistic robots. This class for grades 4-5 will take place at the Lycée Français in Sausalito. Students will learn how to make their bots move in a variety of ways, as well as play sounds and light up, using a programmable Arduino board. They will then decorate their animated creatures, give them a story, and create a magical world for them to live in.
This photo set covers our our first prototypes for this class, featuring a Baby Angel, an Alien and a Bamboodu native american spirit, in different stages of construction. Students will design their own characters, and we will laser cut wooden figures based on their designs, using the same mechanisms to make characters shake their heads and wave their arms while they roam.
Each student will receive a robot kit, which they will learn to assemble, control and program. They will then take their completed robot home with them, after the class ends. For this course, my partner Edward Janne and I have created our own robot kit, using an Arduino Feather M0 for the robot, an RF remote, a custom chassis, plus three additional servos and more parts. Our robot kit is similar to commercial products, but with a lot more features at a lower cost.
We are also teaching a similar class for adults and teens at Tam Makers in Mill Valley, which will use the same robot kit. In just two evenings in late September, we'll show students how to build their own robot with Arduino, make it move, light up and play sounds -- then take it home.

This photo set covers our our first classes, when students designed their own robots, as well as a magical world for them to live in. They imagined a future space city connected to earth by a long elevator, and populated by robots and friendly demons. They named it Foodville: a peaceful world filled with food, including soda fountains, cars powered by slushies, with cotton candy clouds and a sea of apple juice.
Students created animated characters designed to make their world a better place: two police bots, a care bot and a friendly devil. They can throw marshmallows and cotton balls, to insure a life of ‘everlasting fun.’ In coming weeks, we will laser cut wooden figures based on their designs, and they will assemble their bots, make them move, then decorate them, give them a story, and present a robot show to their friends and families.

The Robot Junior was introduced in 1954 by Otto Berning & Co. in Schwelm, Westphalia. This internationally much advertised steel-camera of the ingenious constructor Heinz Kilfitt had two remarkable features, first a modern type of film advance with double exposure lock and coupled shutter cocking, and second a multi-speed kind of rotating shutter from Gauthier, made completely of metal.
The Robot 2's special feature was the most significant for the whole camera series: a strong spring motor for film advance, made by the Black Forest clock maker Baeuerle & Söhne. That allowed to make a series of images in a few seconds. Maybe this feature plus the camera's robust stainless steel body made it one of the prefered cameras of the German army. Especially the German Luftwaffe owned special versions of it with more robust spring motor and a 75mm Xenar lens.
With the Junior, film could now be rewound into the feed cassette in the camera as in other 35 mm cameras but loses the angle finder and the rewind mechanism of the Star.

Just listed this little fellow over at Etsy. Trying to clear out some of my personal mosaic projects to make room for new work to happen.
This little fellow has a key on his chest ... a key to his lover's heart, or possibly his spaceship?

"Robotic mime" performer at the car show in Sterling, Virginia. This person would stand motionless for several minutes, and then change position in a way that made the movement appear mechanical in origin rather than being done by a living being.

We are teaching a new maker art class called ‘Robot World’, to help 4th and 5th graders create their own artistic robot. This after-school class is taking place in fall 2017 at the Lycée Français in Sausalito. Students are learning how to make their bots move in a variety of ways, as well as play sounds and light up, using a programmable Arduino board.
This photo set covers the first half of our 12-part course, when students get to build their robots. Each student received their own robot kit, which they learned to assemble, control and program. They first built a chassis, then wired up the electronics, assembled a remote control, then added a head and arms, with servo motors to make them move.
We then laser cut wooden figures and body parts based on their designs, which included a police bot, a swat bot, a devil bot and a chef bot. Once their bots are designed and assembled, they will learn how to program them and make them move in different ways, then decorate them, give them a story, and present a robot show to their friends and families in December.
For this course, my partner Edward Janne and I created our own robot kit, using an Arduino Feather M0 for the robot, an RF remote, a custom chassis, plus three additional servos and more parts. Our robot kit is similar to commercial products, but with a lot more features, at a lower cost. It was a lot of work, but we’re very happy with the final results, and our students seemed to really enjoy the class. We hope this will encourage other teachers, students and makers to create their own animated characters, for art and technology’s sake.

Two robots conducting experiments in polar regions run on solar and battery power, making weight an important issue in their construction. These robots currently use ATV tires, which, while functional, are extremely heavy. Student designed, built, and tested new wheels to replace the ATV tires, reduce the total robot weight, improve traction, and reduce snow infiltration into wheel assembly. Each wheel consists of an aluminum frame, a rubber tread, and two plastic covers and weighs 3.5 kg.
Students Diana Blank, Ian Graves, David Heinicke completed this project for their ENGS 190/290 engineering design course.
With work in 3D and Cam captures Sunil has made an application that lets you build robots with custom patterns including your face if you wish. These can be printed out and turned into a real robot. Or placed on a virtual 3D robot. Very Japanese ;-) I think it was nice to see the students from different cultures see how their cultures are overlapping.

I saw this on the make website and just had to make one, really cute but i will need about 500 to clean the kitchen floor
