Join Elephant Robotics' Campaign to Win a Desktop Robot Arm

Founded in Shenzhen and incubated by HAX accelerator, we at Elephant Robotics have been creating lightweight, open source robotic products suitable for educational and professional use since 2016. Our newly launched mechArm is the world's most compact robot arm that is open source and developer-friendly.

At Elephant Robotics, we design our product lines in response to needs to see from the community. Feedback from our users help guide what new features and capabilities are added. After launching our first industrial robot arms, the C and P series, we saw a need for robotics developers to have access to adequate and affordable development hardware. This led to the creation of more low-cost and lightweight products like myCobot (six-axis collaborative robotic arm) and myPalletizer (four-axis palletizing robotic arm), aimed at putting more modular robotics development kits on the desk of developers and educators. We then added myAGV, a “trolley” vehicle that can carry up to two robotic arms equipped with mecanum wheels, LIDAR, and a high-precision camera. The combined stack of myCobot and myAGV are fully programmable and configurable. Developers can create innovative full autonomous navigation and guidance scenarios easily using existing libraries in Python, C++, and Arduino.

In Industry 4.0 scenarios, such as warehouse management, we see more developers in need of lab-friendly equipment for developing ML/AI and mobility capabilities with their robotic arms. Our AI Kit, an all-in-one ML/AI development kit, has a Linux-based core operating system is and fully compatible with ROS and OpenCV. This means developers can easily explore the open source stack to learn about the versatility in the arm's control. Check out our full getting started tutorial here.

Take our survey, win a free robotic arm!

We are asking the Hackster community's robotics developers for feedback on our development kits to help us understand if our hardware/software offering fits your development needs. By participating in the survey, you will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a free myCobot (valued at $799). There are 10 chances to win in total - one myCobot, three accessories kits and six mystery kits.

To be eligible to win:

1. Follow our Hackster platform hub so you can stay up to date with all our announcements in the future!

2. Fill out this survey by August 31, 2022.

The more engagement with us on Hackster, the higher your chance to win!

• 50 points for being member on our Hackster platform hub
• 100 points for finishing the survey
• 50 points for tagging us and Hackster on social and use hashtag #robotarmgiveaway. Use the handles @CobotMy and @hacksterio
• 300 points for creating a Hackster project based on any of our products, make sure to tag your project properly in your "Things" section of the project.
