Abstract :
Educational robot with parallel kinematic structure consisting mostly of commercial off-the-shelf components controlled remotely from a computer using a touchscreen. The robot is intended for education and presentation of technology and automation. The control system and user interface have been designed with emphasis on simplicity and intuitiveness, while offering a wide range of options and a gradually increasing learning curve.
