Today, i had the pleasure to go to Autodesk’s event, in the event I spoke to their R&D crew and heard of some new cool stuff they have – High quality 3D Scanning (Recap here) and ShapeShifter (here) that can generate really cool artistic 3D models and give you the file for printing. Autodesk Recap […]

Artistic Robots – (as funny as it sounds) are becoming more and more popular, in this project “Long Distance Art” by the Strukt team, robots repeats after human painter, in real time, and create perfect replicas. Robots that paint are becoming more popular and it seems that it is no longer a challenge for robot […]

You must admire the following project: e-David painting robot, the closest thing to robot art so far, paints with water colors and fixes itself by computer vision based algorithms. e-David Robot Painting from eDavid on Vimeo Working on KeerBot exposes me to many interesting things people do with robots and on the boarder between robots […]

While working on the KeerBot, I needed a simple application that will generate G-code from simple drawings, (for all kinds of debugging), so I asked my friend Mr. Roth for help, and he did the KeerBotDraw  Generally, I was using Dan’s software suit (Makelangelo), but the need to go through Inkscape and Cambam and then […]

Beware,Tech stuff! KeerBot needs to move on the walls to all directions, so I developed a DIY Omni  directional wheel. Omni directional wheel is a wheel that enables the moving to all sides, it is actually a ball that slides on the housing (as can be seen here in sparkfun). the other thing that can […]

Using spray paint is the next step forward a full outdoors graffiti drawing bot, and I am working on making it versatile and simple for some time now, the mechanism shown is a development of a previous concept, that can probably work on any paint (no matter size or how hard do you need to […]

Graffiti spray gun (can gun) will be a great addition to Keerbot, something that connects to a can and operates it. KeerBot is great, that’s for sure. (I am completely objective), but it still needs to be able to draw on/draw off. I developed an mechanism for spraying (here), and it works great, but it […]

I currently work on developing a better spray solution for the KeerBot (my current design), so I though “Why not just to ask the Google???” (or DuckDuckGo if you worry for your privacy), quite quick I found an article on “Robots in Architecture” in the site Shapeways. Since there are no references to the actual […]

I was just chillin’ round the web, and then suddenly I found this site, A guy that built a robot that draws on walls and called it PlotterBot. In addition, this nice guy made a list of similar projects around the web. so anyone can join the efforts at the current step and proceed. I […]

remote controlled spray ! finally I made it – graffiti robot Many designs ran through my head, but I wanted to stick to the KISS methodology (Keep Is Simple, Stupid!), so I tried not to include any special manufactured parts, only staff i had at home (which I will find cheap replacements) so now the […]
