Industrial Robot Concept


 * Initial prototype should be able to handle the automation of welding tasks.
 * EMC2 IRC chat should be a good initial step to explore, people like Andypugh are in the know.
 * On the high end, the open source Industrial Robot should be the runner-up to the Kuka KR 1000 Titan
 * Industrial robot can be a replacement for most torching and welding operations, thereby providing a key ingredient to material post-scarcity
