Back in 2015 I linked to a story about a Dutch company planning to 3D-print a bridge.
Now, 3 years later the bridge is almost done.
And I must say, it looks beautifully!
It’s not only a nice new way to 3D print stuff, but because of printing the bridge, it is also a engineering revolution.
When completed, I’m sure many tourists will gather to see it.
If you hate putting together IKEA stuff, but love their designs, these two robots can help putting an IKEA chain together in 20 minutes. The remarkable thing here is not the time, but the simultaneous motion, the visual capabilities, the motion planning and cooperation to get the task done. The Nanyang Technological University in Singapore is investigating this with the use of mostly “off hte shelf robot parts”.
Fully autonomous robot snow plough, isn’t that a good idea?
Yes, why not? meet YETI.
