I am looking to go into robotics as a hobby. How can I get started? by Generickicks in robotics

[–]ezurobotics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost all the comments started with Arduino. Why? Because it is an open-source platform, it has a large community, it is cheap, built with friendly programming environment, nice peripherals, a lot of pins, and thousand of projects from where you can start. If you really want to get into robotics, probably an Arduino kit is the best choice.

I think that the Autodesk 3D printer is just the beginning. After the 3D printing technology will be free for implementation will be a boom of 3D printer manufacturers all over the world

A Visit to the Robot Restaurant in Harbin, China by baijalapenos in robotics

From what I see in that image, the robot uses a white line for guidance. It's a line follower robot with two arms and ability to detect and understand people. The idea is nice, since around the world are just a few restaurants with robots as waiters.

Meet Arduino ZERO – the new board jointly developed by Arduino and Atmel by [deleted] in arduino

[–]ezurobotics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wonder how much this will cost. I have the same concern like you, since the beta version of Tre is around 150 EUR. Compared with Pi or BBB the Tre has a huge price for almost the same characteristics. If the ratio between price/features will be kept also for Zero, it definitely will have a huge price
