Quorten Blog 1

First blog for all Quorten's blog-like writings

I remember reading about the Franka Emika robotic arm many years ago as being advertised as a much cheaper and easier to use robotic arm than the typical industrial robotic arm. Well, we’ve come a long ways since then. Not only is there the Franka Emika out in the market, but there are now many other competitors too, such as the AGILUS. Alas, the prices are still about the same… $29,351.27 and going up from there.

Unless you go really cheap and use this Tinkerbit robot designed by Arduino.
