FabLab CALI ... to build almost anything

Invention: Project Dissemination Plan

The project does not have the intent to become a commercial product, rather a research platform or an academic tool for testing mobile robot control. As such, the dissemination plan would include documenting its design and features to allow for detail understanding of its components and capabilities, creating a user manual, publishing a conference paper, or making it into a kit that can be used and replicated for a certain class.

Also, the mechanical subsystem can be used to test other electronic designs, micro controllers, etc., since the interface with sensors and actuators is standard and straight forward for micro controller systems with TTL electronics.

A second stage of dissemination would be to create lab practices and start using them in classes or research projects to continue its development. More actuators of this type should be acquired to facilitate the reproduction of this system and since the interface is standard it opens the door for scaled versions up or down.
