Mechanical Hands From A MakerBot: The Magic Of Robohand (From Makerbot blog news)

Posted on May 18, 2013 at 11:33pm 0 Comments

 

When Richard Van As, a master carpenter in Johannesburg, South Africa, decided to make a set of mechanical fingers, it wasn’t just for fun. He’d lost four of the fingers on his right hand in an unfortunate work accident. For a tradesman like Rich, having a disabled hand is a big professional detriment,…

Ciao Roberto, siamo i ragazzi di Bergamo che siamo venuti alla fiera dell'elettronica di Modena e stiamo progettando un quadricottero con arduino. Avremmo bisogno di chiederti un paio di cose.. è possibile avere un tuo contatto di skype o eventualmente un'email?

Grazie

ciao

Giacomo

Thank you Roberto, I've sent an e-mail to virtualrobotix@gmail.com and wait for further instructions

Thanks for the welcome Roberto,

I've already sent you a PM and also an e-mail to virtualrobotix@gmail.com on how to get a Multipilot32F4 for development (and building up a quadcopter).

is it available?

Oh, I'm "elchan" on Aeroquad forum.

Thanks Roberto.  So, what is the relationship between Foxteam and DiYDrones?  Are you guys designing the STM32 board for DiYDrones?

At 12:43pm on July 19, 2011, Enrico Tocchio said…
Grazie Roberto, il progetto è abbastanza impegnativo in quanto dobbiamo portare in volo una videocamera HD operata da un cameramen professionista. Sostanzialmente uno opera il modello in FVP e l'altro gestisce le riprese. L'heavy list sembra interessante, potrei iniziare la costruzione in parallelo e testarlo insieme a voi( pertanto Frank, sentiamoci il finesettimana che bisogna fare la lista della spesa!)Grazie a tutti Enrico

It's great to see the progress being made. I see that you are using the Invenesense gyros that are 500 deg/sec full scale range. My feeling is that we don't need that much range. For high end aerobatics yes, but for a super stable platform that can carry a good video camera we need only about 20 deg./sec. which would increase the stability dramatically. It could also be used to stabilise the camera mount. Movements above 20 deg/sec are never used on a camera mount as it would produce motion blurred pixels. A multi rotor helicopter is also restricted to that  degree of movement when actually shooting video. Noise is the big issue with 300 deg/sec plus gyros. This is what is holding back the development of a serious flying camera mount. How about some development in this area?

Buonasera Roberto,

grazie mille! Del commento, del messaggio privato ma sopratutto di quanto state facendo voi del clan (spero che, detta cosi, non suoni male :).

Sto ancora studiando ed aspettando pezzi per il mio primo quad che a questo punto ha ottime probabilità di utilizzare la FC che, oltre ad avere una dominante azzurro ITA, pare offrire margini di sviluppo molto elevati. Complimenti a tutti, torno a studiare :)

Hello :)

 

Very nice to get such a fast approval :)

I built an arducopter in January and as the weather was much better for programming than flying I started to get familiar with the architecture and the code.

I was many years a sysadmin for Unix systems but since 1 year I switched officially to programming having fun currently with C# and Python.

 

Since I found your project I got even more motivated to get into it.

I plan to use my current platform - engines and IMU  from arducopter. Can I still use the normal ESC or do I have to switch to I2C ones ?

 

And of course the most important question - how can I buy the board ? :)

 

Thank you,

Aurelian
