How is this a paper?<p>TL;DR:<p>- Industrial robots are important and also expensive.<p>- Wouldn't it be cool if they were made from e-scrap? We suggest attaching a solar panel for extra joy!<p>- <Bunch of buzzwords around learning and community and end-of-life management.><p>- Look at those toy robots made from scrap! (And look, there's also a Dalek that can poop!)<p>- Let's do what every hobbyist in every hackerspace has been doing daily for near a decade now: take an Arduino, a bunch of random leftover components, and make a "robot" with servos and ultrasound range finders.<p>- Conclusion: (industrial) robots are important and expensive, but our (Arduino kitbashing) robot shows the way for building them in a more responsible fashion. It also shows how a bottom-up approach to e-scrap could work.<p>Add spelling & formatting errors to the mix. Flagged for extremely low SNR.
