Omni Directional Robot

This was filmed on iPhone by Brent at the Melbourne convention centre during national manufacturing week. The robot was made by 3D Printing Systems on their 3D printer and it can travel in any direction due to its special Airtrax / Mecanum wheels. Robot is controlled wirelessly from a mobile phone running android. For further info on the 3D printer please go to www.3dprintingsystems.com or www.intellecta.net.

@denzel387 Hi Denzel, not taking orders yet as I need to make myself one for myself first ha ha.

@DCTTeacher1 Yup, all done using the Up! printer. It's a nice little unit, I'm trying to redesign the wheels to make them smaller and not rely on bearings...more on this soon.

@madoxnet Hi again, to late I beat you to it lol. Jokes aside, I went to the website and found your stuff. I have obtained a copy of the STL files. I recently purchased an UP printer for school and I can't wait to try it out after the holidays. Thanks again for your help and support. Curious, did you build the one that I filmed?

@DCTTeacher1 Youtube wouldn't let me post a link before...trying now...nope... thingiverse . com/thing:5681

@madoxnet Hello and thanks for posting a comment. I appreciate the lead with the STL files for the wheels. I will go there now and check it out. Cheers, Aaron.

@DCTTeacher1 The STLs are available on Thingiverse :)

@TeachingInnovation Hi Joel. Yes I agree I want one bad (3D printer that is). Seriously thinking of getting one from Tony and finding the STL file for those wheels and making them. Cheers, Aaron.

[TeachingInnovation]

Awesome. I will also have to get my hands on a 3d printer to make some of there wheels.

@coolantcooled Hi Brent. Yes I agree, we definately have to make one or two of these bad boys! I intend to purchase a 3D printer for Ntec from Tony Pugatschew before the year is out. Good filming on your behalf mate. Cheers, Azza.
