 Project objective

Industrial automation is a global trend of today’s industrial landscapes, aiming at increasing quality, flexibility and safety in manufacturing lines by using robotics and IoT technologies to control machinery and manufacturing processes. Setting up manufacturing automation lines is currently a time-consuming and costly process, since it requires to build up complex hardware-software platforms by assembling many different expensive components (e.g., processing units, wireless modules, GPIO, FPGA, etc.). In addition, platform customization for specific use-cases implies some – or all – of these components to be changed, in order to meet the desired requirements (e.g., performance, power, interface, etc.). Krtkl has developed Snickerdoodle, the first full-stack development board for robotic systems that combines functionality, usability and affordability in just one palm-sized device. Snickerdoodle is conceived for high-performance robotics applications, and it can be quickly and easily configured and re-programmed via a companion smartphone application (iOS & Android). Snickerdoodle minimizes the time, effort and cost needed for setting up and maintaining industrial robots. Moreover, it can be used to create local computing networks to use alongside the cloud network, such as edge computing systems. During the Phase 1 feasibility assessment, a go-to-market strategy and a supply chain will be established, as well as further development plan will be drafted.
