Presenting AMOS to the Raspberry Pint Club

I was asked to present AMOS to the Raspberry Pi club in London, England on January 29, 2020 at 19:00 GMT. Unfortunately In Nature Robotics does not yet have a budget for overseas travel but I will be doing the presentation via Google Hangouts. A few of us will present our projects, and then the group (about 30 to 40 people I am told) will head out to a local pub for some beverages. If you happen to be in London at the end of the month, you can check out the details of the event at this link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/raspberry-pint-raspberry-pi-and-other-digital-making-fun-tickets-80736249295


During the last week of the Christmas break, I managed to educate myself a bit further about WebGL and Javascript programming, and now have some demo code completed for rotating a textured 3D cube in a web browser using the mouse. It's a long way from having a 3D online robot ordering system, but it's a start!

The automated anchor system now has its limit microswitches in place, mounted on the crane and a vertical post. These switches detect when the anchor weight is lifted up to the level of the crane and when the top motor rotates around to the vertical post respectively. Here is a short video showing how they work:
