Being Cobot Popularizer | FAIRINO Launched Cobot Education Project

On March 10 this year, FAIRINO 2023 terminal price conference, announced the new FR3 and FR5 two collaborative robots terminal market guidance price - 22800, 23800 yuan. Through the interpretation of its product design ideas: that is, to be the basic tool of ultra-high cost performance, the road of independent research and development and innovative supply chain model of FAIRINO also let the industry shine.

Along the development path of "robot instrumentalization", after three months, FAIRINO robots once again bring new surprises to the industry:

At the launch event on June 16, FAIRINO robot released the FR5-SPARK version of the product, the latest price is still breaking the norm, and the price of 18,000 yuan caused a gasp of amazement in the industry.

The launch of the "hundred schools thousand machines" plan, focusing on college students and enthusiast groups, is expected to combine its "hand, eye, brain, foot" fully open the hardware and software platform, can work together with scientific research and development groups to explore the future form of robots, expand the application boundary, bring new ideas for the development of the robot industry, to achieve the imagination of the sky.

The FR5-SPARK version of FAIRINO is revealed

At the extreme price of 18,000 yuan, how about the FR5-SPARK version? This is probably the most important focus for most users.

From the public parameters, the FR5-SPARK version of the robot body has a good performance, the payload of 5KG, the working radius of 922mm, repeated positioning accuracy of ±0.02mm, this model and accuracy of the robot, whether it is used for scientific research, industry or service in the development and exploration of multiple scenarios, have a high degree of compatibility, can be more comfortable.

The launch of the FR5-SPARK version of the robot and the "One hundred schools and one thousand machines" plan are the new ideas of FAIRINO to explore robot +, which is pioneering to a certain extent. In 2023, only 1000 units will be sold, and the group of users of college students (college students and graduate students) will submit the corresponding information with valid documents, and after the qualification review is passed, you can buy a set of this cooperative robot for 18,000 yuan.

FR+ platform helps "hundreds of schools and thousands of machines"

In addition to the high cost performance, we also hope that the FR5-SPARK version can be truly convenient for users to further use and application development: the most core part of the project is to open up the hardware and software platform.

Originally, most of the deep teaching and research work, if you want to develop robot products that meet the market and research needs, after purchasing the robot body, it is necessary to carry out secondary development on the robot platform. Especially in the development of new applications in emerging fields such as industry and agriculture, the process is more cumbersome.

Buyers need to look for cost-effective visual cameras, end grippers, six-dimensional force control, mobile platform (AGV/AMR) and other parts in the market according to demand, and then redesign the mechanical structure of the robot, including the fuselage, sensors, actuators, etc., according to the parts and the body.

Since the various parts are not connected, after the purchase, the developer needs to choose suitable and highly matched hardware and software, develop the control system of the robot, and finally conduct experiments to verify the performance of the robot, and make necessary adjustments and improvements.

This systematic integration process means a lot of time and development costs for most users and developers, and a large number of users are difficult to cross the gap from purchase to actual development of applications.

In the past few years, we have tried to solve the problem of finding parts, developing and secondary integration.

Through communication and collaboration with a number of robot hardware and software providers, we face the market with a holistic thinking, open and open the bottom interface at the product level, and are committed to creating a one-stop procurement platform for users. Not only is the operation simple and easy to get started, but also the open platform makes the subsequent access to more open source and interfaces more convenient.

At present, in the hardware and software platform we have opened up, there are several parts, including the vision camera, the end claw, the six-dimensional force control, and the mobile platform (AGV/AMR), which respectively represent the robot's "hand", "brain", "eye" and "foot".

After users purchase these parts of the product, they can use the existing FR+ standard application software and hardware platform of FAIRINO to directly achieve systematic product function construction and meet the development needs in more scenarios, which greatly reduces the difficulty from purchase to development, deployment and operation.

Multiple paths work together to further empower

The robotics industry has historically been highly sensitive to the research, development and application of emerging technologies.

As a friendly tool, collaborative robots are widely welcomed by STEM and programming courses with human-machine collaboration. As a cutting-edge scientific research platform, a single robot is usually expensive, costing tens of thousands of dollars or even hundreds of thousands of dollars, so that most developers are deterred by funding problems, at the same time, the subsequent secondary development is full of uncertainty.

Committed to becoming the popularization of collaborative robots, FAIRINO robots found this problem, through deeper research and development and iterative innovation, launched a "hundred schools thousand machines" plan at the press conference, which not only further broke the technical and price barriers, to create a "highly cost-effective basic tool" at the price of 18,000 yuan, but also the use of hardware and software to open the way. It provides a robot overall solution with a lower threshold for various industries.

In terms of promoting the popularization of collaborative robots, we have also carried out a multi-path synchronous effort: In March this year, FAIRINO united with Shenzhen Workers Relief Foundation to promote the training of automation professionalism of front-line workers, so that more people can participate in the era of machine replacement.

At this press conference, we also announced the latest FAIRINO community platform, which is expected to be officially launched on July 15.

The FAIRINO Community is divided into four modules:

①Future exploration: the exploration of the future form of robots and the direction of future technology development

② Task release: Assist users to explore market channels and build a bridge between supply and demand

③Application display: Display a variety of innovative applications

④ FAIRINO School: Share FAIRINO tutorials

FAIRINO hopes to share more ideas on the development of robot technology on this platform, help users solve technical problems, promote communication and collaboration, and further accelerate the progress of robot research. Through the sharing of further development tutorials, FAIRINO will also provide excellent community participants with rich resources including technical support, production capacity assistance, market channel sharing, capital resources and other resources.

FAIRINO hopes that whether it is robot hardware or supporting parts, or safeguard measures, the future "hundred schools and thousand machines" program can help explore robot development and research and reduce research and development costs.

Of course, the shared knowledge platform of FAIRINO College is also expected to meet the differentiated learning needs, respond to the literacy demands of the intelligent era, including information awareness, computational thinking, digital learning and innovation, and jointly explore a new model of man-machine collaborative scientific research with thousands of robot developers, providing better and easier one-stop robots and supporting holistic solutions.

Conclusion and future

Technological innovation is already rapidly enhancing personalized learning experiences, creating adaptive new learning environments that help users inspire inspiration and creativity, further reducing the workload of practitioners, and providing more opportunities to go beyond imagination.

FAIRINO robots will continue to create more cost-effective basic tools, and then promote the application of collaborative robots in thousands of industries, not only conducive to the rapid verification of the effectiveness of robot technology in multiple industries, but also for the extension of public services to provide practical basis and data support, help quickly provide more beneficial choices for all users.

China's "robot +" application action implementation plan "estimates that in the future, more than 100 kinds of robot innovative application technologies and solutions will be broken through, and more than 200 robot typical application scenarios with high technical levels, innovative application modes and significant application effects will be promoted.

To make all walks of life affordable robots, so that collaborative robots really popular，FAIRINO has been working hard.
