Nice that's awesome , hopefully there will be a video of the ceremony. Any idea which robot will be doing the cutting?
I'll ask if cory can take a sneak peek photo of the robot that he's EZ-Bit'd together for it
Happy for you, D.J. You have worked hard.
Jeremie and I power it up for the first time
What fun! Looks like it will work nicely.
However don't run with that setup and remember; always point it it down when you walk.
This probably is the safest way to run with scissors.
, hopefully they got a video of it to post on YouTube .
How cool is that! An EZ robot kicking off the event. Awesome DJ!
Here is the video from the launch
In the video, the EZ-Robot was controlled by our Deputy Mayor using a Wii remote
He did a great job!
Great video, good control of a small work space.
One small Snip for robot, one giant snip for robotkind.
Copy Houston?
