In today’s fast-paced world of robotics, the MyArm 300 PI 2023 really shines as something special. Created by Elephant Robotics, this compact, desktop-sized robotic arm with seven axes is a clear sign of how far robotic technology has come and how it’s becoming more available to everyone. In this article we will take a closer look at what makes the MyArm 300 PI 2023 so interesting, exploring its design, features, what it can do, the software it uses, the tools it comes with, and all the different ways it can be used.

With the improvement of scientific research technology level and the popularization of artificial intelligence, robotics is about to usher in an era of rapid development. How to make robots get rid of the stereotype of high cost and high threshold of use, so that robots can go out of the exhibition hall into the family, has become the goal of every enterprise. Elephant Robotics has always been committed to expanding the application scenarios of robots, so that robots can enter the household. One of the representatives of lightweight multi-axis collaborative robots is the familiar six-axis collaborative robotic arm myCobot series, which is famous for its compact size and lightweight, and its rich and expandable functions. The myCobot series has been proven in the market for a long time, from personal creativity development to school research and learning to small commercial applications, there are mature examples, which makes it a good choice for robotics enthusiasts to get started. The myCobot series is about to launch a heavyweight new product – myArm 300 Pi!

Elephant Robotics (ER) recently announced fresh, off-the-shelf educational offerings. Including the ultraArm P340, an upgraded robotic arm, and the artificial intelligence (AI) Robot Kit 2023, the educational suite offers a newly updated textbook and refreshed tutorials. Elephant Robotics designs and engineers innovative bionic and collaborative robots with application areas spanning education, automotive, R&D, life science, electronics, and metal processing industries.

As Elephant Robotics’ 7th anniversary, we sincerely invite you to celebrate this special moment with us! Elephant Robotics was founded on August 10, 2016. To mark this momentous occasion, our founder and CEO Joey Song, has shared Elephant Robotics’ development history and future prospects(click here). Additionally, we will be launching our seven-year #anniversary celebration from August 15th to September 1st, during which you will have the chance to win some amazing surprise gifts!

Elephant Robotics has launched its most advanced 6 DoF robot arm so far with the myCobot Pro 600 equipped with a Raspberry Pi 4 SBC, offering a maximum 600mm working range and support for up to 2kg payloads. We’ve covered Elephant Robotics’ myCobot robotic arms based on Raspberry Pi 4, ESP32, Jetson Nano, or Arduino previously, even reviewed the myCobot 280 Pi using both Python and visual programming, and the new Raspberry Pi 4-based myCobot Pro 600 provides about the same features but its much larger design enables it to be used on larger areas and handles heavier objects.

As the hottest field in technology, robotics is revolutionizing industries and driving innovation across the globe. To meet the growing demand for skilled professionals in this rapidly evolving landscape, Elephant Robotics has developed a groundbreaking robotics education solution for colleges and universities. This innovative solution combines the simulation of an automated fruit picker with the compound robot of automation of fruit sorting and delivery, offering students a comprehensive learning experience in one of the most sought-after and trending areas of technology.

The strengths of Chinese companies in the world’s AI-powered robotics supply chain are largely attributed to robust government support, significant investment, growing R&D capabilities, a vast talent pool, strong manufacturing capabilities, and strategic global partnerships.

Perhaps you are already acquainted with our previously launched AI Kit 2023. To meet the demands of our users, we have introduced the myCobot 320 AI Kit 2023. Now, we have extended this successful experience onto myCobot 320, further enhancing the performance and functionality of the robotic arm. This brand new package not only inherits its outstanding performance from its predecessor, but also adds a series of exciting new functions.

In my ongoing quest for a robotic companion to reside on my desk, I have found few worthy contenders. While the ClicBot (reviewed in June 2022) and the Petoi Bittle (reviewed in November 2022) came close, neither of them quite fit the bill. Taking my search to the next level, I have been sharing my workspace with the Elephant Robotics myCobot 280. The myCobot 280 is a significant step up in both complexity and functionality from the bots I’ve tried before, which is clearly reflected in its price. The myCobot 280 kit that I reviewed costs $638, and additional accessories range from $100 to $1000. With that significant increase in price, though, comes a big jump in what’s possible with this amazing, albeit complex, robotic arm.

2023年5月10日(水)～12日(金) の日程で東京ビッグサイトにて「NexTech Week2023春」の一環として「第7回 AI・人工知能 EXPO【春】」が行われた。各種AIソリューションの展示会で、以前はチャットボットばかりだったが、今回はより実務的な、外観検査や検品自動化などの用途のAIの紹介が目立った。もちろん、いま話題のChatGPTや生成系AIを使ったソリューション提案も多かった。とにかく「ビジネスにどう活用するか」ということについて、出展側も来場者側も以前よりも真剣に捉えようとしている雰囲気を感じた。
