3D Printed Pi Tank

Madis Kaasik and his team -- Ilya Kuzovkin, Ulf Anso, and team lead Kristjan Järvan -- in the Garage48 hackathon had 48 hours to conceive of and build a new machine in the "3D Printing by Mass Portal" event. The team came up with the inventive "Pi Tank," using a Raspberry Pi 2 to put together an open source tank robot using a Microsoft Kinect sensor with a camera feed to see what their robot 'saw.' They printed parts using a Mass Portal Pharaoh Ed 3D printer, then assembled it using the Kinect and some electronics. They've made the design available via links on Github, Kaasik's website, and Thingiverse.
