We (Instapainting.com) did this on Twitch with what I believe was the first robot on there: https://www.instapainting.com/twitch-paints

This is awesome. I was about to ask at the office who set this up, but I see you bought it second hand.

Still plan on sending to everyone at the Rethink office to check out!


Anyone have the backstory on how they have a 40k robot on a twitch channel?


We were able to buy it second-hand at a much lower price


I see the comment below saying they bought it secondhand but the company might also just see this as marketing and used the budget for that.


Baxter is... special.


Have they tried reaching for the camera yet :)?


That would probably be the first thing the setup would prevent :)
