Low-cost arm to make Indian chai

1 pointingend881 comment

Hi HNers, I have for a long time tried to build a different type of devices to be able to make india chai. After lots of unsuccessful attempts, I am going to lean towards trying it one more time using low-cost robotic arm. Do you have any recommendations ?

Chai is complex to make. It involves many spices, all ground and roasted differently. You will not find a robot arm that does this for you. You could buy a robot for $4000 or so - maybe up to $20000, however this robot will not know what to do. As another commenter said to you previously, the arm is only part of the process.

May be time to give up on robot arms and accept that humans are the right people to make some things. Good luck and think about moving on.
