geometry = data mass = capacity
movement = cost control = authority
Robotics research hub for prosthetics, actuation, fabrication, exoskeleton systems, and simulation-linked automation.
๐ Built on ARC-Core โ the authority / event / receipt kernel. Every actuator command, sensor reading, fabrication job, exoskeleton state change, and simulation tick is structurally an ARC-Core-shaped event with a signed receipt chain. The same signal-intelligence spine that powers the rest of the ecosystem is what a future real-time control stack would bolt onto here.
๐ Built on ARC-Core
The current repo is a portfolio hub, but its doctrinal backbone โ and the spec for any future real-time robotics control stack here โ is ARC-Core. Robotics inherits ARC-Core's event/authority/receipt discipline because safety-critical systems need exactly what ARC-Core provides: tamper-evident logs, authority gating for sensitive actions, deterministic replay.
| Robotics layer | ARC-Core pattern | Why it matters here |
|---|---|---|
| Actuator commands (servo, hydraulic, pneumatic, SMA) | Event ingest + fingerprint dedupe | Replay-safe command issuance โ a dropped network packet re-sending the same command doesn't double-actuate |
| Sensor streams (IMU, force, tactile, encoder) | Event sourcing + 7-day sliding count | Every sensor reading is an event; state is derived by replay; burst-rate monitoring reuses the same sliding-window logic |
| Authority for motor enable / emergency stop | Role-gated execution (require_role) | Only operator / approver role can enable torque above threshold โ same ladder, applied to physical safety |
| Blueprint / CAD / build-sheet receipts | Structure polygon + calibration profile upsert | Build sheets are polygon-addressable identities with revision receipts; Arc-RAR-style bundles for rollback |
| Fabrication jobs (laser, CNC, 3D print) | Proposal โ evidence โ receipt โ approval | A job is a proposal; a simulation dry-run is evidence; an operator approves; the cut/print emits a receipt |
| Exoskeleton state transitions (arm, disarm, recalibrate) | Proposal lifecycle + simulation dry-run | Every state change proposes, simulates its impact band, then emits an approved-or-rejected receipt |
| Simulation linkage (physics engine tick) | Deterministic replay via event log | Identical event log + seed produces identical simulation output, every time โ same guarantee as Seeded-Universe |
| Incident / fault detection | incident receipts + geofence hits | Any safety envelope excursion emits a receipt with structured detail; geofence primitive generalizes to keep-out-zone / swept-volume checks |
| Evidence export for safety review | export_evidence_pack | After any anomaly, export a JSON bundle: events + sensor tracks + state transitions + receipts, verifiable against the chain tail |
| Cross-robot identity resolution | Deterministic entity_id minting | Same actuator label always resolves to the same canonical identity across the fleet |
The honest status line
This repo is currently a public hub, not a runtime โ no firmware, no real-time control loop is present here yet. But the architectural decisions for any future control stack are already made: use ARC-Core primitives for anything state-producing, authority-gate physical actuation, and emit a receipt per commit. That way the first robotics prototype to land in this repo inherits the same tamper-evident discipline that powers the signal-intelligence console, the governed AI build loop, and the real-estate command center.
Full seven-repo ARC ecosystem + companion consumer applications:

Start Here
This repository is the public hub for the Robotics Master Controller project: a browser-first portfolio and routing layer for Gary Doman's robotics-oriented work.
It currently functions as:
- a landing page for robotics and fabrication projects
- a research router into related GitHub Pages sites
- a visual identity node aligned with the broader Neo-VECTR / ARC ecosystem
It does not yet contain embedded control software, firmware, CAD assets, or robotics runtime code in this package. The current repo is a portfolio hub / documentation surface, not a deployed robotics control stack.

Why This Repo Matters
For a recruiter, collaborator, or grant reviewer, this repo shows:
- a coherent robotics research direction rather than isolated one-off pages
- alignment between fabrication, control concepts, standards research, and simulation thinking
- lightweight deployment discipline via a static, easy-to-host public hub
- a clearer bridge between robotics-adjacent work and the larger systems ecosystem
Trust and Scope Notes
To keep the repo honest:
- this package is not a robotics SDK
- it is not a firmware repo
- it is not a real-time control runtime
- it is currently a portfolio/documentation hub for linked research projects
That makes it useful as a public-facing authority node, while leaving room for a future deeper control-stack repo if and when one exists.
Tech Stack

Repo Roadmap
High-value next steps:
- add per-project detail pages instead of only outbound links
- add structured metadata and social preview assets
- add grant / research dossier routing
- add a dedicated robotics stack page tying control, simulation, and fabrication together
- split clearly between shipped public hubs and conceptual future control architecture
