Many researchers and enthusiasts use the Elephant Robot Collaborative Arm to produce application cases and research projects . Let us review the year 2023, when robot application cases have exploded, with 13 selected application cases .

ChatGPT control robot arm

Researchers from the Microsoft Autonomous Systems and Robotics Group used the language model ChatGPT to autonomously program and control the myCobot 280 robotic arm.

The project successfully realized the automatic recognition of the color of wooden blocks and arranged them in the style of the Microsoft logo. The project demonstrated the potential of language models in robotic tasks.

In addition, another person also proposed a similar project, using ChatGPT4 to control myCobot 280 through SoM to perform precise object picking actions.

Official Magazine

TheMagPi Review

Raspberry's official magazine "TheMagPi" conducted a two-page comprehensive review of myCobot 280 Pi in one issue (The MagPi Issue 137). This article conducted an in-depth review of the powerful functions and wide range of applications of myCobot280.

Medical Robots

In the healthcare sector, the Medical Robotics project led by Jaime Andres Rincon Arango , using Elephant Robotics’ four-axis palletizing robot myPallezer260 , demonstrated the potential of robotics in the healthcare and telemedicine sectors.

He created a teleoperated robotic system that performs basic telemedicine exams, such as a phonocardiogram . The medical robot uses virtual reality immersion to examine the chest area and listen to heart sounds.

Another MD user developed a robotics project for ultrasound examinations , demonstrating the adaptability of Elephant Robotics' six-axis collaborative robot arm myCobot280 in diverse medical applications.

Educational Robots

Lightweight multi-axis collaborative robots are widely used in the field of education . Tsinghua University Laboratory integrated the six-axis collaborative robot arm myCobot280 with a suit using 3D vision technology . This verified the application of robots combined with advanced visual perception in the field of education.

Bartending Robot

Tuan Huynh, Vincent Niera and Ardian Nuredini from the University of Munich in Germany proposed a bartending robot project with a built-in system to facilitate customers to order drinks. They designed this bartending robot using myCobot280M5 , myCobot adaptive gripper and necessary raw materials.

This innovative system simplifies the bartending process, reduces wait times and increases customer satisfaction in bars and restaurants alike.

Visual Art Robot

Mkchlab_net’s Visual Art Robotics Project cleverly uses myCobot280 to create a unique visual experience that places illuminated cocktail glasses on individually crafted coasters.

By integrating weight , myCobot 280 is able to project dynamic images based on the specific beverage and environment, creating a visually engaging and beautiful presentation.

Garbage collection robot

K. Miyawaki, a robotics engineer and researcher at the Faculty of Science at Osaka Institute of Technology, developed the " Garbage Collecting Robot " project. This innovative robot uses advanced SLAM navigation technology and is equipped with an automatic guided vehicle to autonomously locate garbage.

The six-axis collaborative robot arm myCobot280 uses myCobot Suction Pump 2.0 to efficiently collect and transport waste.

Automatic labeling robot

Robots have a wide range of application scenarios in commercial advertising, exhibitions, expositions, etc. A user demonstrated the automatic labeling capabilities of myCobot Pro 600 at an international exposition by programming our myCobotPro600 as an " automatic labeling robot ".

Interactive Robot

The HelpingHand project by Hanna Daxer, Laura Gräber and Ludwig Felder from the University of Munich is an interactive kitchen assistant .

This innovative robot simplifies manual tasks, allowing users to easily interact with myCobot280 through hand gestures . Equipped with a camera, myCobot 280 can detect objects and hand movements, enabling tasks such as stirring , pouring and cutting .

Flower Arranging Robot

A Twitter user named OUGA shared a creative project - a digital flower arranging robot .

This creative work cleverly combines 3D model content with real flower materials , and realizes real-time simulated flower arrangement display through collaboration with the myCobot280M5 six-axis collaborative robot arm .

Food service robots

Achieve efficient and precise food handling by using myCobotPro320Pi and myCobotPro adaptive gripper .

Organizational Robots

Use YOLOv5 technology to control myCobot280 and myCobot adaptive gripper to achieve delicate arrangement of toy scenes.

Candle lighting robot

Twitter user PaScienceExperienceCentre planned a romantic " candle lighting robot " project, which lit candles by programming mechArm270 .

These creative cases not only demonstrate the unlimited potential of collaborative robots , but also highlight the wide acclaim and positive feedback that Elephant Robotics has received in various industries around the world .

In the medical field, the precision and flexibility of collaborative robots make robotics technology applicable in the medical field .

In the area of ​​personal development, robotics enthusiasts have demonstrated innovative thinking and imagination through the use of collaborative robots .

In the field of education, more than 300 universities around the world, including the University of London , the University of Bristol and the University of Houston , have adopted Elephant Robotics' educational robot products and solutions.

In the future, Elephant Robotics will bring more breakthrough innovations and progress, and provide more high-quality robotic solutions for all walks of life around the world.
