Basically, I’m trying to design and build this: remote-control locomotive that picks up objects using a 4-axis arm It’s marketed as a kid’s toy. The idea is to produce a lot of these, sell them in top areas in London (like Muswell Hill), showing off the ingenuity and building a reputation as expert roboticists. The robotics industry is wipe for taking over. There’s billions to be made. But we need to start somewhere.
I dabble in a lot of sciences and engineering subjects but am currently self-taught (CAD, electronics, programming, algebra, …) I’m certainly not an expert in anything. I love acquiring knowledge for the sake of it, but time is limited and I need help getting this project done. I’ll do 99% of the work obviously.
So, I turned my home into a “lab”. I’ve got oscilloscopes, multimeters, 3D printers, components, materials, machining equipment, etc. The only tools I’m lacking is a rigorous mathematical understanding.
I need someone who knows their stuff: Kalman filters, mechanics, probability theory and Baye’s rule, analysis, linear algebra, etc. I sort of “know” my stuff, but I don’t all know my stuff, and I’m all self-taught, but the depression has got me good.
Please reply or drop me an email at [email protected]. I’d leave a number but I haven’t got my phone with me atm. We’ll do a face-to-face.
TLDR: Let’s just say I need smart friends.
