I found it so inspiring that I included it in the Weekly Robotics #34 that is live since 30s ago (https://weeklyrobotics.com/weekly-robotics-34). For anyone interested here is a link to the paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.03815 . Having robotic arms for &amp;lt;$5k would be great for research, hobbyist and applications not requiring crazy accuracy. I don&amp;#x27;t have hard data at hand but I doubt that at present you can find commercially available robot with similar characteristics for less than $15k. Another thing that&amp;#x27;s happening here and I really enjoy is how BLDC motors…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1904.03815/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
