In this video I restored a 20 plus year old industrial robot arm, a Kawasaki FC006N with a C80 controller. I Got it communicating to my PC program that's running machine vision through a webcam using EmguCV, a C# wrapper for Open CV. This is a near $10k project I've been working on over the last year. I plan to have the robot do more useful things coming up. Remember to like if you liked it and share, thanks for watching!
