What makes this special to me is their claim of using cheap robots. So, how much would one of those robo arms cost?

In other words, what would it set me back to recreate this?



Here is the tutorial how to recreate an ALOHA cell: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sgRZmpS7HMcZTPfGy3kAxDrq...

The robot arm kits are available commercially: https://www.trossenrobotics.com/aloha-kits

It's my belief that 10x cheaper arms with the same performance are possible, and the only reason they don't exist is because nobody needs them in sufficient quantities.
