Some Impressions from the UDK “Rundgang” 2008.

After 5 weeks we finally finished your ICYS TK 5000 Robot. It will be shown at
the UDK RUNDGANG from 18 to 20 July.

So everyone is invited to come to the show.

So after more den 24 hours without sleep here some picture from the night before presentation.
It`s begining with a disaster. We nearly finished the case for the robot but then unexspected all the
paint comes off. But have a look at the pictures, it was really a *#**##* . So we spend half of the night
with repairing.

WE ARE BUSY!

Today we made the first fitting test. So far it looks ok but there is still a long
way to go.

Its also time to introduce the team which is working on this project:

Mr. Maus aka allesblinkt
Mr. Posselt aka verktorjunkie

After a hole day of hard work we finished a second prototype. Surprisingly it
works. So next step is to get rid off some construction mistakes.

After two days of thinking how we can build automatic roll off mechanism for
our printing maschine, we finally found an solution.

So check out the pictures of the first early prototype below.

Today we startet to work on the moving part. First off all we start exploring the
TCM SP-Robo-01.

So we removed everything we don´t need.

Tomorrow we will start to put all pieces together. So far we have two Arduinos.
One for the GB Printer and the other one works as a little extra Brain for the
Robo base compound. There will be also a little mini itx for running the
facedetection software (open cv) and our own printing app.
