I have one and the build quality is really impressive for the price point.
- ipsum2 3y agoHow is the software support?
- alex_suzuki 3y agoI‘ve only just started using it via the web UI, no idea.
- dr_kiszonka 3y agoNice. What do you use it for?
- alex_suzuki 3y agoReproducible test scenarios for barcode scanning with a smartphone.
- dr_kiszonka 3y agoVery clever. This use case would never cross my mind.
- devsda 3y agoUnless it has to do something with the print quality itself, can't this be achieved using a stationary phone with its camera towards a monitor displaying 3D transformed barcode images ?
- alex_suzuki 3y agoYes, possibly. But reading from the screen is quite different from reading actual barcode prints, for instance you have to deal with Moirè patterns and such. And frankly it was just a good excuse to buy an arm. Sue me! ;-)
- 2rsf 3y agoI wish I had it a decade ago when I tested phone touch screens
- moffkalast 3y agoThere's also the 5-dof version that I've seriously considered buying at one point, but it's really hard to tell if the ROS 2 integration is any good: https://www.waveshare.com/product/robotics/roarm-m1.htm https://www.waveshare.com/product/robotics/roarm-m1.htm A real shame there isn't a 6-dof one, since that's what you'd really need to grasp anything properly in the radius around the arm.
- mdrzn 3y agoThis is one of those things I have NO NEED FOR but I definitely would want one on my desk.
- singularity2001 3y agoAny such thing on amazon etc?
