Rhino was Técnico’s first educational robot and provided its students with unique experiences with robotics in the 80’s and 90’s, such as programming the robot to stack blocks on top of each other, among many other things. Rhino’s command system allowed independent arm movements to be programmed, which was a big step forward at the time. It contributed to the astonishing process of industrial transformation that brought technology into our daily life. Today, Rhino is inside a display case, in Mechanics III building, at Alameda campus.

The story of Rhino, Técnico’s 1st educational robot, in the 32th episode of Podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos”.
