Reactor Arm Smiley!

Posted: 03 Aug 2016 07:30 AM PDT


Jeff Owrey of IntraVisions programmed a Reactor Arm to paint a smiley! This is a fun little project that demonstrates just a fraction of what you can do with a robot arm! There are a few really awesome projects on IntraVisions.com that you should check out after the video, such as the DIY Weather Station, DIY Radiation Monitor, and a few Javascript games such as Conway’s Game of Life! We had fun poking around these projects, and we can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!
