@ed0henderson @seeedstudio I ended up mounting it on a mobile robot so I use my 24V battery from my robot
English

@NicoRobotics @seeedstudio Nice similar fix or could source local adaptor?
English

We have a problem.
Turns out:
1. the @seeedstudio reBot kit doesn't come with 24V 15A power supply, you have to buy it separately.
2. Our lab is in Australia we have shit electronics supply chain.
3. The specific AC DC adaptor from Seeed Studio ~2 weeks shipping time.
4. Fixed problem by:
> Meanwell LRS-350 AC/DC switch
>14 AWG electrical wire
> Plastic Junction box
> 3m AU 3 Pin power cable
> Crimps
Arms up soon!

4 weeks ago we brought 200 founders to our campus
They came from all over the world. Japan, India, Russia, Korea, New Jersey, Canada & 30+ other countries
They've built:
- Autonomous solar farm maintenance robots
- Hearing aids that cost $20 instead of $4700
- Protein engineering that costs $10K instead of $200K
- An autonomous retention engine for companies
- An algorithm that finds tumors
- Insurance for AI agents
- Disk free infinite cloud storage that requires no upload
- A headband that amplifies your REM sleep brainwaves
- AI that finds & schedules the best talent for interviews
- Robots that stock retail shops
- Underwater drones to clean fish farms
& about 100 more ambitious companies like this.
Next Friday we're hosting a Festival/Demo Day to showcase their progress and celebrate startups solving real problems.
We believe in founders that care, are obsessed with their solution, & never stop relentlessly building.
If you feel the same way. Come through

Smart Earbuds with built-in camera and AI embedded
I've always hated smart glasses because I don't want to look at more screens
So I built Ordo:
- ask anything to a local ai and hear answers instantly
- takes photos of your life hands-free, just by speaking
- remembers everything you say from your grocery list to meeting notes & brings it up later
- Integrated with your major apps you use everyday - slack, notion, gmail…….more
Your assistant that can see, hear and talk to you effortlessly, just blended in your everyday life without you realizing
I'm calling it Ordo! Take a look:

❌ Oh no I broke my robot gripper!
✅ Oh yes, time for a gripper upgrade!
First TPU print, nice flexible gripper design @seeedstudio !
Must read paper on the topic: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
The math behind it is beautiful

Private beta update: more data for our AI trading agents, plus what's new:
→ Workflows: guided flows that build the perfect prompt for you
→ Asset & indicator badges in the chat — reference exactly what you mean
→ Sentiment widget: short / mid / long-term views side by side, each with its justification
→ Activity tab: full event timeline per execution, with filters, sorting, ticker logos
→ Live tab rebuilt: pending orders, real-time uPnL%, no more 50-trade cap
→ CSV export for trades and orders
→ Real vs. demo execution clearly labeled on every agent
→ iOS fix: no more zoom-in jump when tapping inputs

@NicoRobotics fun builder energy lol. but what’s the serious version of this: mobile camera operator, inspection, or just testing the stack when the room changes?

@hthieblot Combine the current manipulation performance with autonomous navigation and you can already deliver value - that’s what we focus on
English

Wild, robotics manipulation and dexterity will be solved this decade.

We have news! We created a new robotics model called Loop Model 1. On the zip-tie insertion task, it achieves 20x more throughput per unit of data than "Pi06 + RLT" from Physical Intelligence, a top model for such tasks. It’s the missing piece that makes MicroFactory work, because now deployment becomes so simple and fast that our users can do it themselves.

Is your Sunday even worth it if you don’t spend it with 50 other people at @fdotinc cheering for a toast flipping robot?
Kudos for the great hackathon! @Ryan_Resolution @makermodsai @seeedstudio

@NicoRobotics @seeedstudio @huggingface Actually now that I look closer it's not a rail, just a mounting
English

Just finished assembling the new @seeedstudio reBot arm and it's incredible. About 2x the size and 5x the lifting power of the @huggingface LeRobot, with all-metal construction and high-precision robot motors.
It's going to be available in June for $1,500 assembled. That's nearly 10x the price of the LeRobots, but it uses the same HuggingFace software and is a good upgrade path.
Here are the two shown side by side

Setting up with @IsaacSin12 for our upcoming hackathon
This is part of our @makermodsai Physical AI Hack World Tour.
We’re introducing OpenBooth, our new foldable physical AI lab. If you want a grab one for yourself, move quick coz we are selling out fast.
This is a massive robotics hackathon here in @fdotinc. Just putting in some final few touches on our robots and OpenBooth setups for our hacker tomorrow.
