Robot Army Starter Kit Launch!

[spetku]

Make one of these sharp looking creatures :


We finally launched the Kickstarter for our delta robot kit just two days ago. If you haven't heard about it yet, then I encourage you to check it out! My larger goal beyond going into production is to fund the completion of an old project of mine which is to make a literal army of these little robots and then control them with a combination of motion capture and neural input. All of our development will be shared with our backers so that they can try everything at home with their delta. - Take a look at the cool things we've been up to : http://kck.st/1iXawn2

Thinking real hard for any other "practical" use ...

The kit is designed to be very hackable, so it's "practical" use is what ever you come up with... even if that is to learn more about how delta robots operate and inverse kinematics.

Cute toy and fun for learning electronics, not very useful though .

[spetku]

Sarah, I support your effort and hope to make it to your installation.  My daughter and I will build this together.  Pledged.

I've been going back and forth for a while on whether to back this project or not. I really like the idea of the project, and supporting your installation, the shipping costs are outrageous. [especially as I'm in Canada, it can't cost anywhere near $60 to ship here] While I did finally cave in and back you, as I really want to build one of these things with/for my son. But I emplore you to please come up with a better shipping rate to Canada at the very least.

Woo!  Only a week left in the kickstarter, and it looks like you're at 183% of your goal.  By my count that's over 150 little yellow deltas who will be sent out into the wild to conquer the world.  Congratulations on your progress Sarah!
