Abstract
This article presents an example of a connection between three major modern disciplines of engineering: Artificial Intelligence, Robotic Engineering and Additive Manufacturing. The main focus is on developing the methodology for creating of a printable, low-budget and six degrees of freedom robotic arm, which can be used with external artificial intelligence system. The developed solution is based on a popular open source robotic arm project. The Article consists of three parts: introduction to 3D printing, short summary of printable robotic arm with emphasis on kinematics of the manipulator and presentation of available options for implementation of external control system based on artificial intelligence.
