Ryan’s Robotics Episode 3: How I Acquired My JACO Robotic Arm
In the latest episode of “Ryan’s Robotics,” I talk about how I acquired my JACO robotic arm. I take viewers through the process of testing out a model JACO arm, how I went about fundraising, and what it was like when I started to use mine.
This video is straightforward, but I hope it will answer some questions for those looking to acquire one of these devices. Feel free to ask me questions here in the forums, and also check out the company’s website at http://www.kinovarobotics.com. Also, be sure to subscribe to the SMA News Today YouTube channel.

Funding an endeavor like this sounds like no easy task, but I’m glad it worked out for you. I’m sure it will inspire a lot of people to give it a shot.

It’s definitely an intimidating price tag, but I’d hate to see that keep people from going after it. It’s absolutely doable if you’re patient and resourceful.

did y’all have to go through a dealer too?

So for me, we crowdfunded to raise the money, and then got the arm directly from Kinova. DM me and I can put you in touch with some people there.
