🤖 The PolarBear - Open-Source 3D-Printable Multipurpose CNC Machine
Computer numerical control (CNC) is a method for automating control of machine tools through the use of software embedded in a microcomputer attached to the tool.
Nice project of a useful desktop machine that can be used in many ways, from soldering to 3D-printing, depending on the task, tool, and a program.
Thanks to the PolarBear's unique design and kinematics, the limits between the needs of the different functions are more blurred. While it can be as fast as a 3D printer, it can be rigid for use as a CNC milling machine as well. The machine can be build of available off-the-shelf components and has 3D-printable parts.

Archax is a 4-meter-class robot that can be operated by a human pilot. It has two modes: "Robot Mode," where all movable parts are operational, and "Vehicle Mode," where it folds its arms and extends its front legs 60 degrees forward, assuming a lower posture. In each mode, both the operable parts and the movement speed change.
The robot stands between 3.9 meters (in Vehicle Mode) and 4.5 meters (in Robot Mode) tall, with a total weight of 3.5 tons. Its design incorporates a blend of materials, including steel, aluminum alloy, and fiberglass-reinforced plastic.
The cockpit is equipped with four monitors and nine cameras, providing operators with comprehensive visibility and control over the robot's numerous joints and movements. While initially an entertainment-focused prototype, Tsubame Industries envisions expanding Archax's applications beyond entertainment, aiming to develop more versatile and practical robotic systems in the future.

The Orange Pi Zero 2W offers a compelling alternative to the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W, closely matching its form factor while delivering notable upgrades in performance and versatility. With its Allwinner H618 quad-core Cortex-A53 processor clocked at 1.5 GHz and RAM options ranging from 1 to 4GB, it provides enhanced computing power.
Key features include a mini HDMI port, dual USB-C ports, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, and a 16MB SPI flash for bootloader storage. It retains compatibility with the Raspberry Pi's 40-pin GPIO header and introduces a 24-pin "function" connector for expansion boards. The board supports multiple operating systems, including Debian and Ubuntu.
An optional expansion board enhances functionality with more ports and receivers. The starting price of $12.9 for the 1GB RAM variant making it an attractive choice for those looking for an affordable and powerful single-board computer.
