UFactory's uArm, which is an Arduino-powered 4-axis parallel-mechanism robot arm created for personal desktop use, has blown past its $5,000 funding goal on Kickstarter with more than a month to go. Clearly, uArm has struck a nerve, generating more than $60,000 in pledges in just a handful of days. For those who aren't familiar with robotic arms -- most of the world, it's safe to say -- the uArm is modeled after the ABB industrial PalletPack robot arm IRB460. However, the uArm is smaller, made of wood or acrylic, and a lot less expensive.
