Review on Kambria Robot

After the first robotic prototype, robotic machines gained massive publicity paving the way for the adoption of robotic machines in industries and workplaces. After a few decades, the robotics revolution - propelled by advanced and progressive development in computing power and artificial intelligence - witnessed a new generation of robots programmed with complex reasoning ability coupled with sensors to provide more functionality. This led to its massive acceptance and wide use in most manufacturing, assembly and IT sector due to its high economic value.

Although the robotic advancement has made some features adaptable to the consumer needs, the designs are not fully adapted to homes. Even after decades of research, the high production cost, low adaptability to some sectors, and low efficiency, have hindered its full adaptability and functionality, thereby failing to address everyday needs. Limitations of Robotics Many other challenges faced by the robotics industry include the lack of quality interfaces and abstraction layers for software, the lack of equipment, semantics and methods to share designed parts in a distributed fashion, significant portions of expended effort are often implicitly discarded, nice robotic applications are slow, exorbitant and difficult to make i.e. innovation is stifled and more also the slow turnaround, high minimums, and poor interfaces from conventional manufacturers.

Explicitly, these problems cause a circular effect that makes the design unduly hard to reuse by others and continuously waste resources, results into major redesign effort for modifications, leads to bias inference towards monolithic and non-modular designs, reduces efficiency and effectiveness since there is no common consensus available for developers to work off in unanimity, missing semantic links across various systems including firmware to electrical engineering and electrical engineering to mechanical, difficulty in getting good suppliers for selected parts, negotiate, verify paperwork and assemble an in-house team with high experience, no practical standards or instructions to capture and record the comprehensive start-to-end process information, inadequate infrastructure and high-level abstractions for robotic programming, lack of open platform and development tools to innovate and build upon, limitation on explorative development, capital funding is only offered on large scale or mature projects, low development speed, higher costs, time and effort and many more.

Ohmni Robot

This robot was designed by members of the Kambria team to accelerate the adoption of robotics at home. With a high iteration speed and reusability, it reduces the capital spent in the manufacture and allows for bridging of distance between loved ones by ensuring a real-time connection and makes video chats feel like a real-life interaction. The innovation was welcomed and it became a leading innovation.

Concept

For the need to reduce challenges in the robotics industry and accelerate the robotic development to a less expensive affair and also encourage rapid adoption, as well as the creation of a collaborative ecosystem, is what has led to the creation of Kambria. With the "cooperate and share knowledge orientation", Kambria seeks to introduce blockchain technology into robotic development by creating a system where entry level is low while also having the ability to collaborate to help one another thereby creating incentives. Kambria is made of five pillar which is Codebase (KDNA), innovation market, the manufacturing alliance, value capture and legal protection. Forms of rewards are maker credit, Kambria karma and Kambria token which is the utility token used on the platform. Solution With Kambria, it would permit reuse of state-of-the-art, cheap, totally-usable designs, algorithms, etc. from the Kambria codebase to enable full specialization and also use KDNA + Kambria manufacturing to transform ideas or designs into real and functional parts and also to increase the order of magnitude of design in a faster and cheaper way. Kambria seeks to help in creating an avenue for Collaboration and interaction with people around the world on general projects. With one click, users around the world can obtain, then test and iterate on the same new design to improve performance and efficiency. The bounty marketplace gives access to a massive amount of funding and a mechanism for the robotics community to determine what's valuable. The system is designed to massively reduce the time and capital risks. It also helps to easily prototype application with few times of trial. With Kambria, one can develop on ready existing but 100% customizable robots to ensure salient upgrade on robotic development. The system also helps to reduce risk and greatly increase innovation rate and provide widespread access to fungible robotic labor on-demand in the future.

There would be ICO for the sale of the KAT token. With a carefully organized and experienced team, Kambria hopes to integrate robotics functionality into our everyday use or machine and also make it accessible and cost-effective to all.
