Okay, this is kinda interesting. Grant Gould @nonnihil@hachyderm.io posted that his company is looking for an educational non- profit or school to take a donation of UR-3 robot arms.
So I type "UR-3 robot arm" into Vivaldi's address bar, it takes me to the Startpage search, which has as its top sponsored link Vention.io selling them for $33,011.
I wonder if Google gives me different results, so I hit there, and the top sponsored result is the same link, but titled "Universal Robots UR3e - $38,363 USD".
Huh. Anyway, clicking through gives me the same $33k.
The actual product page appears to be Universal Robots UR3e. It's got a 3kg payload. It looks like the stock version doesn't have a gripper.
It's great that companies like Physical Intelligence (π), are training robots to fold laundry, but it's gonna be a while before I shell out for two of these, plus hands, on a mobile base, to fold my underwear.
