老澳门六合彩官方开奖 and CWRU Students Build Drink-mixing Robot
Meet Bar2D2. He never went to war a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. But he can mix a drink for you.
Luke Louder, an electrical engineering student at 老澳门六合彩官方开奖鈥檚 Washkewicz College of Engineering, designed the robot鈥檚 electronics and software.
Bar2D2 dispenses alcoholic drinks. His storage tanks hold four different beverages, which he can be programmed to mix in various combinations. He also turns his head, whistles and beeps.
The droid took four months to build. Louder and a small team of students from Case Western Reserve University created Bar2D2 with the help of rp+m, a leading additive manufacturing company based in Avon Lake, Ohio. Louder recently completed an internship there.
With the exception of storage tanks and a few tubes, all of the robot鈥檚 parts were fabricated with 3-D printers.
Bar2D2 had his coming-out party at RAPID 2014, a conference and exhibition dedicated to additive manufacturing and 3-D printing, held in June in Detroit. He mixed drinks for hundreds of attendees, who waited in long lines to check out the droid. He was 鈥渢he most popular little guy at the show,鈥 according to IndustryWeek magazine.
