Wiping a whiteboard is not hard but robots can do it better than us, so why bother. The swiperWHITE is an automatic whiteboard that sticks to your board with magnets. You simply have to press the button for it to clean your board for the next person.
Here is a spray drone that uses sensors and software to automatically detect and cling to walls. It can fly for up to 10 minutes on battery and track walls hundreds of feet high. The Katsuru Beta Painting Drone uses standard spray paint cans.
Here is another robot kit designed to get you started in AI development. The XiaoR Geek JetBot AI Robot comes with a computer that can run multiple neural networks in parallel. This robot car comes with open source code, so you can create line following, object recognition, and obstacle avoidance functions.
Engineers are always inspired by nature to improve their designs. Researchers from Beijing Institute of Technology have come up with a turtle inspired amphibious spherical robot that can crawl on asphalt ground or bottom of the pool.
Teaching robots to grasp objects in mid-air at a high speed is easier said than done. A team of researchers from the University of Auckland have come up with a passive closing, tendon driven robot hand that can get the job done. It can grab and hold on to objects thrown at it.
Here is a building coding robot kit that introduces your kids to basic coding concepts through play. The Warrior STEM Robot comes with over 400 pieces your kids can use to build their own robotic toy. It comes with a drag & drop coding interface.
Meet the Adaprox Fingerbot: a cool robot that can control buttons, switches, and toggles. It comes with voice and app control. You can use it to control your lights, coffee machine, robotic vacuum cleaner, printer, and everything in between.
Here is a TaraXL & NVIDIA TX2 powered e-rover that can avoid obstacles, drive autonomously, and navigate any area with its stereo vision. It uses TaraXL for past path replanning, which plugs into the USB 3.0 port of the NVIDIA Jetson unit.
Here is a cube-shaped robot that uses a motor to keeps its balance. It is based on STM32 and has a 1300mAh battery. Once you set the initial position, the robot will stay balanced by activating the motor to counter any disturbance.
Here is another cool robot kit that can teach you a thing or two about coding. The Yahboom STM32 Robot Car comes equipped with an OV7670 camera. It is ready for line following and obstacle avoidance.
