Nini RobotChallenge umemezele ukuthi uzohlangana ne-Arduino ne-RS Components ye- "Hack the Arduino Robot!" ukuncintisana, abavikeli bekhukhwini badubula baya esibhakabhakeni. Futhi ngesizathu esihle. Umncintiswano we-11th waminyaka yonke weRobotChallenge uqukethe izinto ezintsha, futhi ngokungagwegwesi, ezinwabuzelayo, nezidalwa zamarobhothi, ezikhulisa ibha yokuthi i-Arduino-bots elula ingaba yini. ngosizo lomklami onobuhlakani obubi.
I-OFFRobotics, eholwa nguJohn Rees, umqambi wohlelo wase-UK, ivelele phakathi kwabangenele nge I-OFFRobot. Le robocreature ethandwa yisihloko esithi "ukuhamba okuncane," ihamba yonkana ngendlela efana nenkalankala, emilenzeni eyenzelwe ukusebenzisa i-Inventor 2014 yabe isiphila ngokusebenzisa ukuphrinta kwe-3D nokunemba kwelaser. Ngaphambi kokuletha umngane wakhe omncane Rees wachaza,
“Ngihlela ukuklama futhi ngiphrinte i-3D imilenze ehlukene yerobhothi, ukuze libekwe ethekwini nokujikeleza kwamasondo kuyenze ikwazi 'ukuhamba'. Inhloso enkulu kungaba ukuklama nokuphrinta izinyawo zesicabucabu (octopod) noma imilenze yebhungane (hexapod), okwenza irobhothi likwazi ukuhamba ezindaweni ezingalingani njengotshani. Ngemuva kokuthi lokhu kuhlolwe futhi kusebenza kahle ngithanda ukufaka izinzwa emilenzeni ukuze ngikwazi ukuklama okunamathiselwe okuhamba kahle kakhulu, kanye nokuhlola izinzwa zokusebenzisa ezinyaweni ukukala izinto ezinjengomswakama / izinga lokushisa / ukuqina kobuso futhi kungenzeka ulungise umjikelezo wokuhamba ukuze uhambisane nezimo. ” - UJohn Rees ngeRobotChallenge
Uqale iphrojekthi yakhe ngokusika amakhadibhodi we-laser kanye ne-plywood ngesandla. Ekhungathekile ukuthi i-OFFRobot encane empofu ibingazukuvela njengoba bekuhleliwe, wabeka isithunzi sakhe wabamba isoftware yokumodela ne-3D Printer. URees wayengakaze ayisebenzise isoftware phambilini, kepha, egcwele ukuziqhenya komuntu nethemba, wabeka ikhanda lakhe phansi wayosebenza.
URees ekuqaleni wayekhuthazwe nguTheo Jansen Ama-Strandbeests- mhlawumbe isikhaseli esibi kunazo zonke esirobhothi esake sacabanga (ngaphandle kwalezo zingcungcu ezincane zesicabucabu kuTom Selleck ngo-1984 Baleka) - kanye nerobhothi langempela 'ICyber Tiger ' kusuka kuDisney Research. I-OFFRobot ayisihle kangako njengalezi zingcezu, kepha ngokuqinisekile unesisekelo esihle kwezobuchwepheshe namathuluzi asebenza nawo.
Ngeshwa, akazange aqede ngokushesha ngokwanele ukufaka imilenze yamarobhothi ephrintiwe engu-3D ekwakhiweni kokugcina. Esikhundleni salokho wabuyela ezimpandeni zakhe, wasika i-plexiglass nge-laser cutter futhi wagcwalisa ngempumelelo irobhothi lakhe ngesikhathi. URees njengamanje usebenza ngokuqedela uhlelo lwakhe lokuphrinta lwe-3D, efunda “iqhinga elicocekile elivela ku-Andrew Leek e- [HappyLab]. Lapho ngiphrinta amagiya ami nganginenkinga yokususa okokuxhasa 'komphetho', futhi wasikisela ukuthi ngiphrinte kancane kancane ngaphandle kwabalandeli. Kusebenze ukwelashwa. Ukuphrinta kuphuma kahle futhi kunesisekelo esihle kakhulu esilungele ukunciphisa ukungqubuzana. ”
UJohn ugcina iphrojekthi yakhe ye-Offrobot ivuliwe I-Github nokunikezela ngokudlala ngokudlala kwakhe iwebhusayithi.
