Nairobi, Kenya: The first ever Nairobi Innovation Week event that took place at the University of Nairobi last month that gave a platform for individuals to bring forward different Innovations.
Among them was a robotic arm, controlled using a wirelessly connected joystick. Both the control and joystick boards were implemented using the modern ARM-based Freescale micro-controllers. FreeRTOS was used to create a real-time firmware running in both boards. The robotic arm is a basic KIT for learning robotics.
