Hi.
Well, I talked a place into letting me teach there Mech E. Robotics
course. Yes, they have a Puma arm, but I would like to offer the
students something to work on during the first half of the course
that won't kill or mame them if they make a mistake. There used to
benchtop educational arms and other small robots which would serve
the bill. The problem is that I am having a hard time finding them
and I want to try to acquire stuff for September. Yes, I know that
that is a fool's errand, but I will try anyway.
Why am I getting to teach robotics to Mechanical Engineers? Well,
their roboticist left and the course is currently required. Anyway,
I am open to ideas. I do think that the students will be expected
to make the Puma work by the end of the course, but I would like
to have them do a bit of other stuff too.
