A Confetti Bot With Raspberry Pi @Raspberry_Pi #PiDay #RaspberryPi
Some day robots may take over the planet. They may act in defiance of all Asimovian rules. They may run their own robotic society, full of robot goals and robot dreams and robot lives. And on the offhand chance they have robot parties, this DIY confetti popping robotics project may help this future robot society with their festive days. Here’s more from Instructables:
Are you tired of boring celebrations with the same old confetti popping techniques? You can now design your very own confetti-popping robot with a big red button that will make your parties a colorful blast, literally! With this robot, you’ll become the life of the party with just one press of a button. Whether it’s a birthday party, a wedding, a company launch, or just a random Wednesday night, this robot will add an extra dimension of fun and excitement to any event.
In this instructable, you’ll learn how to build your very own confetti bot using Viam.
This robot turns a motor when you press a button, which then sets off a confetti cannon and makes it rain confetti.
