Note that if you use the Blocks or OnBot Java Tool to program your robot, then you do not need to download this repository. If you are a git user, you can clone the most current version of the repository: git clone https://github.com/FIRST-Tech-Challenge/FtcRobotController.git Or,...
The procedure is aimed at users with basic expertise in soft robot development. The procedure requires from a few days to several weeks to complete, depending on the degree of characterization required. Key points The protocol describes a sheet-shaped millirobot with 12 locomotion modes for ...
Improved Y Rack. The Y rack I am using had one end that lifted off the build platform slightly and is consequently curved. A better version of this part would be wider to eliminate some wobble. Balance Y Rack. As mentioned earlier, the entire robot is very light. As the Y axis is fu...
"We were able to uncover that mechanism by using the robot," said Yunxing Su, a postdoctoral associate in the lab. "We identified an important effect of a low-pressure region at the back side of the swimming legs that contributes to the lift force enhancement during the power stroke of ...
Chinese suppliers, such as Robot Digg, carry a wide range of 3D printer components and typically undercut US suppliers by significant margins. You could probably save $300 compared to what I paid by going this route. (Note that you'll likely pay more in shipping to buy heavy items direct...
1 Pound Combat Robot This post is about three years late, but I’m catching up. Combat robots like Battlebots are seeing something of a revival right now. The ones on the Battlebots show are 250lbs, and cost tens of thousands of dollars – most of that in batteries. ...
