I've always wondered why this robot uses a gantry system.
Would be less intrusive and thus easier to work alongside a human if it was a polar system, with a single pole in the middle/corner, like a tower crane.
Simpler mechanically as well I suppose
- daemonologist 2y agoI toyed with a cable-bot (like what is used for top-down shots at sporting events) for gardening. Needs three towers and probably difficult to make sturdy enough for watering but way cheaper at large scales than anything rigid and relatively more portable.
- ragebol 2y agoSturdy enough for watering should not be too hard I guess. I'd say weeding it harder, depending on the method. Pulling out weeds with roots and all (most effective IME) requires some force and torque.
