Challenge: How to make it affordable?

Cartesian Vs. Deltabot

• More parts• Slower speeds• Easier calibration (manually)

• Less Parts• Faster speeds (used in packaging industry)• Automatic calibration• Easier to Scale

Challenge: User Experience

“We underestimate the role that friction plays in supply/demand.Consumption is often far more limited by experience than price.”

Solution: Offset the learning curve by making it an educational experience.

Kickstarter tips/lessons• Predict costs (duh)• Finalize supply chain before launching.• Make a Gantt chart (timeline) so your backers know you have a plan.• Don’t open the flood gates. Limit pledges.
