FAB FESTIVAL 5TH & 6TH JULY // e-NABLE 3D printed prosthetics

admin — Sun, 29 Jun 2014 19:14:55 +0000

FAB FESTIVAL

e-NABLE 3D printed prosthetic hands & 3D printing party Kachina Gosselin and Jon Schull & 3D Print Barcelona

WORKSHOP @ 12:00 – 15:00 SAT, 5 JUL

e-NABLE is a global network of 3D printing volunteers who design, fabricate, and deliver free or low-cost 3D-printed prosthetics to children and adults with missing hands and fingers. In this workshop we’ll explain how the organization works, describe the software we are developing to facilitate the process of customization, and demonstrate customization, fabrication, and fitting. We will also enroll participants in our community, and describe ongoing research and development projects, and invite them to participate.

Cost: 25 € to print a prosthetic hand

Free to participate

FAB FESTIVAL 5TH & 6TH JULY // Poppy project: open-source 3D printed humanoid robot and the FabLabs

FAB FESTIVAL

Poppy project: open-source 3D printed humanoid robot and the FabLabs Lapeyre Matthieu

DEMO @ 10:00 – 20:00 SAT, 5 JUL

“The Poppy project (http://www.poppy-project.org) aims at building an Open-source humanoid platform based on robust, flexible, easy-to-use and reproduce hardware and software. In particular, the use of 3D printing and rapid prototyping technologies is a central aspect of this project, and makes it easy and fast not only the reproduction, but also the development of morphological variants.

Poppy responds first to the scientific objective to study the role of morphol- ogy in cognitive development, in particular for motor control and human-robot interaction. It appears today that a suitable design of a robot morphology can greatly simplify control problems, increase robustness, and open new modes of interaction with the physical and social world. Thus Poppy aims to enable and simplify the experimentation, the reproduction and the modification of the mor- phology in research laboratories. It also allows collaborative working, sharing and replication of the results on these issues between laboratories. The ambition is to become a reference platform for benchmarking and dissemination of scientific results.

Thanks to its properties, this platform also meets a growing societal need: education and training in technology combining computer science, electronics

and mechanics, as well as a training tool to the emergent revolutionary 3D printing process. With its openness, its design and its rather lower cost, Poppy provides an object and a unique context for experimentation and learning of these technologies in a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) approach. Several experiences with Poppy in colleges, high schools, Science museums and Fablabs in France and abroad are already underway and will be discussed in the incoming sections.”
