Robotics

For some time I have been working on making robots that can support software testing. You can think of the following applications:

• Have Appium tests performed by a stylus such as Tapster (Jason Huggins) or an H-bot (inspired by midTbot);
• Tests in which NFC (Near Field Communication) plays a role;
• ‘real’ operation of an IOT (Internet Of Things) device;
• Any other application where ‘real’ interaction is necessary.

Various components are customized and printed with a 3D printer so they seamlessly connect to the product to be tested. In combination with the correct mechanical (bearings / motors / servos / sensors) components, the robot can perform specific actions.

The robots are mostly made of opensource BitBeam components. The BitBeams have been modified so that metric nuts and bolts also fit.
