Last week, we successfully raised over €24,000 through our Kickstarter campaign. Late pledges are open until the end of July, and we will launch our online shop after delivering rewards to backers.
Open-source software
The robot arms has open-source software MiKoBots studio. In the software are many features build in like simulation, g-code interperter and vision contol.
Vision
Vision control is becoming more important for industrial robots, to respond to this we have build in a feature in the software to control the robot by vision.
Kit
The robot arm is designed as a 3D printing kit, this means that the whole structure of the robot arm is made out of 3D-printed parts. The other parts like motors, pulleys and bearings are all standard parts which you can buy on sites like Amazon or AliExpress.
Tools
You can connect multiple end effector tools to the robot arm, like a gripper, vacuum tool or a magnet.
