Hi, I'm looking for (Whom) experienced help with Arduino, Bluetooth type wireless servo control, and a host of other challenges in order to develop prototype~II of my awesome mechanical system. Designed to help millions of people and robots have improved access and autonomy, or loaded with missiles for opposite effect*. (*subject to apocalypse)
What: Goal is for a 'toy' scale model of the thing with basic Arduino functionality, like; remote control, Bluetooth (or better) wireless multi servo control.
One of the typical difficulties in this project is integration and control of many servos using the 'right' board, possibly more than one board talking to eachother or at least listening and acting in unison, Using the MIT app, and so on (Disclaimer guy: actual solution may be simpler). Bonus efficient package fit and function would be the tits.
Where: Pref. U.S. or Italy based, obv. features; accreditation, pay &/or equity.
When: yesterday
Why: World Domination, I mean... service to humanity
Any interest &/or questions? Talk to me. More info available upon progress with cooperation.
The scope of the project stage is small scale Arduino controlled prototype (v02) with basic functionality. The greater scope is (patented) disruption of market sectors where physical access is an issue required by robots or people with disabilities. (hint: better than paving the entire planet and installing elevators)
Deliverables: are patent art, prototype v01 and research/notes. 3D model under construction. Need component integration and code.
Timeframe: to be determined, I hope/estimate a month of 1-2 weeks build and 1-2 weeks debug. How long does it take you to do something you're familiar with but is a new configuration? Me?.. I dunno.
Resources: initial budget, 2000$ parts & labor.
Questions:
For Patent reasons; are you U.S. based?
What's your rate? Amenable to % equity?
Do you possess the requested skills? The remote wireless control of numerous servos, maybe two Arduinos... I'm tryna keep it simple but there are some unknowns to the build solution.
I plan to use it for helping millions of people with disabilities, and robots, improve their access and autonomy. But you just know the ARMY would load it with sharp and pointy.
Yes World Domination!.. of obstacles to mobility for everyone by market disruptive technology solutions, and hopefully pay my bills and buy a burrito!
Caution with the patents. If it has not changed in the US it is first to invent, in other countries it is first to file. The patent groups I worked with also went for a worldwide patent as well. You need to understand the ownership of a patent, the patent proper and the rights. Good Luck!
