Can you program Sawyer to solve the famous “Tower of Hanoi” puzzle? You only have to make it move around a few rings… but keep in mind, it’s not as easy as it sounds… 

If you are interested in programming a real robotic arm remotely, the Science and Technology Centre of the Eugenides Foundation offers you the opportunity to participate in the online workshop “Programming Sawyer, a robotic arm”. Sawyer is a robotic arm, used in both laboratory and industrial environments in collaboration with humans. Sawyer belongs to a generalized class of robots called cobots.

In this series of four workshops, participants will learn more details about the Sawyer arm as well as how they can program it remotely in Python while using the Skype platform. They will become acquainted with the way we plan the path that the robot will follow in its workplace (path planning) so that it can avoid possible collisions with obstacles. The goal is for Sawyer to solve the mathematical puzzle known as Hanoi towers, using advanced programming techniques.

Reservation is required at 210 9469641, Monday to Friday, 9:30-16:30, as well as completing the application form/formal declaration and sending it to logistics@eef.edu.gr.

After confirming the reservation, you will receive an email with the link and the relevant instructions for direct connection to the workshop. The workshops are conducted through the Microsoft Teams online platform.
