Umhlaba wamarobhothi ngokungangabazeki ungomunye walabo abahlomule kakhulu kulo Hardware Libre, kangangokuthi ukusetshenziswa kwama-robotics starter kits kwenze isidingo samadivayisi, izingxenye, njll. saba sikhulu nakakhulu.
Nokho, sibonga hardware libre abantu abaningi badala ikhithi yabo noma amarobhothi abo ngaphandle kokuthi basebenzise la makhithi. Okufanayo kwenziwa nguPhilippe Leca, unjiniyela ongumFulentshi osewakhile UGilbert300, irobhothi le-hexapod, enebhodi le-arduino nephrinta ye-3D. IGilbert300 iyirobhothi elinezingxenye zalo eziphrintiwe nezikabani imiklamo imahhala futhi lokho kusebenza no-Arduino.
Igama lesidlaliso "300" livela eqinisweni lokuthi inguqulo yesithathu ezokwakhiwa. Idizayini yokuqala yakhiwa nge-aluminium futhi yayinentambo ye-PS2 enamathiselwe ukuyenza isebenze. Imodeli yesibili isivele isishintshe ifreyimu yayo yezingcezu zepulasitiki ebezikhanya kodwa ziyizicucu ebeziqhamuka kwamanye amakhithi, into namanje engakhiqizi. Futhi ekugcineni kwafika uGilbert300, inguqulo yesithathu enomklamo owenziwe ku-OpenSCAD, uhlelo lwamahhala lwe-CAD design, olwabe seluphrintwa kuphrinta ye-3D futhi ngemuva kwalokho, yonke into yayixhunywe ebhodini le-Arduino elabuye lavumela iGilbert300 ukuxhumana nge-wifi.
IGilbert300 ingaphrintwa futhi yakhiwe ngaphandle kokukhokhela ikhithi
Irobhothi lesicabucabu iGilbert300 alihle nje ngokubukeka kepha lisebenza kahle, ngakho-ke ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa okwenziwe, uGilbert300 ukhombisile ukuthi ingahamba kahle emhlabathini. Ngaphezu kwalokho, okufakiwe kwakamuva kusho ukuthi leli robhothi lesicabucabu lingathatha izithombe zaleyo ndawo ngenkathi lihamba futhi lithumele yonke into kwikhompyutha ukude, ngaphandle kokuncika kunoma iyiphi ikhebula.
Ngokwami, amarobhothi esicabucabu awangikholisi, kepha-ke kufanele ngisho ukuthi lo mklamo unelukuluku lokwazi, hhayi nje kuphela ngezinto ezisetshenzisiwe kepha futhi nangenxa yokuthi akudingeki ikhithi ekwakhiweni kwalo, kuphela ibhodi ye-arduino, amanye ama-motors kanye nephrinta ye-3D.
