What would your Robot do? A video of the recent 21st Century Robot event in NYC.
Introducing the HR-OS1 Endoskeleton
The evolution of an open source, 3D printed 21st Century Robot from concept to creation. Melvin Estudillo (age 11) gave drawings and a description of what he would want his robot to look like and what he would want it to do. His drawings were then conceptualized by illustrator Sandy Winkelman and created into a 3D model. That 3D model was printed on a 3D printer as a shell for the HR-OS1 Humanoid Endoskeleton kit by Trossen Robotics. The robot's 3D printed shell was then painted to give it more personalization and to match Melvin's original vision. Melvin's robot's name is Callim. What would you want your robot to look like?
21st Century Robot was a hit at Maker Faire NYC 2014! Intel's futurist Brian David Johnson, along with a team of designers and engineers presented an open-source 3D-printable robot kit from Trossen Robotics that runs on the Intel Edison chip.
On September 19th 2014 at the Story store in NYC, 21st Century Robot was featured in an Intel press event. The 21st Century Robot team presented the different steps it takes to create a personalized robot. Children from a local Bronx school were present and showed their personal printed robots (they also sewed clothes and capes). Asked what apps they would use, two answered they wanted one that made the robot clean their room!
Brian David Johnson, Intel Futurist and architect behind "Jimmy" the robot, discusses the function and focus of personalized robots. Johnson also announces Intel's "Jimmy" goes on sale Saturday.
Owners have to choose the apps and print the skin of their 21st Century Robot
Intel may be best known for powering up PCs and tablets, but as consumers look to bring the power of computers everywhere, it is also working with makers and entrepreneurs who want to tinker in wearable tech, the Internet of Things and yes, even with their own customizable 3D printed robot.
