Designer Background: George Wang
I am currently a PhD Candidate in Engineering . My research area is design of intelligent robots. I have worked in a few robotic labs since college, designed and developed different types of robots. Some previous work includes walking robot, wheeled robots, etc. I am passionate about robots, and designing Zubot is my favorite hobby in life.
Risks and challenges
The entire design rely is made from common metal pieces and assembled with screw only. It requires careful thoughts in the design phase - selection of hardware, design of the joints, etc. It is a great challenge to find the most suitable hardware piece and assembly the parts seamlessly. Zubot is not only a product of passion and creativity, but also patience and experience. With your support, we will have more flexibility to buy and test different metal hardware, construct more creative models and expand the cool Zubot series.
