Semi-autonomous wheeled robot to help with various tasks around the workshop. Starting from the initial prototype of a non-propelled non-intelligent video recording workstation going to fully developed robot capable of repetitive tasks such as welding and working in tandem with humans.
Stage 1: Video Recording
- Raspberry Pi based video recording / instructional creation workstation.
- Managed with PiNet.
- 1 - 12V car battery to power the raspberry pi and the monitor.
- Input / Controls:
- Simple direct button controls that can be manipulated easily while wearing thick gloves.
- Orbit / Scroll input to navigating in FreeCAD drawings.
- Voice Activated Controls:
- User can introduce themselves (to get attribution for instructional and fetch pre-defined task list / cut list / FreeCAD diagram).
- Start / stop videos.
- Ask to show specific freecad drawing.
Stage 2: Welding
- Add ReadyWelder / OSE equivalent.
- Add 3 car batteries to power the DC welder.
Stage 3: Watch Me
- Two cameras.
- Computer Vision processing added.
- Simple articulating camera arm replaced with basic robotic arm.
- Shopaid can more intelligently record the user speaking into camera and the workarea / hand movements at the same time.
- Robotic arms move to have one camera follow the users face and the other camera follows their hands.
Stage 4: Follow Me
- Propelled Wheels
- Shopaid can drive and navigate itself (be summoned from charging station to work area) avoiding obstacles.
- Return itself to charging station.
Stage 5: Hold It
- Robotic arms can be instructed to hold things in place: User would move the arm to desired position and tell robot to lock in place.
Stage 6: Repeat
- Robotic arms can perform repetitive tasks after being taught them. (see: Rethink Robotics Baxter robot arm)
