The Golden Arm is much replicated, but the original commercially available unit was designed for Nox Manufacturing.
It was a real joy to be a part of the development of this light deprivation greenhouse by Harvest Excel.
This rack was designed to transport greenhouse ribs.

AGRICULTURAL
In college I was part of a team that designed an automated tomato planting machine. That is when I learned the importance of robotics in the future of agriculture. I always enjoy agricultural product design because of the challenging nature of the environment and the real world applications.
This gallery is of a few images of more recent agricultural projects.

Lawrence Livermore Labs Contracted with CMC to build this inspection robot. I designed all of the mechanical systems and fabricated them by hand. It could elevate the camera and sensor array from 18 inches to 5 ft off the ground for inspection within the Nuclear Inspection Facility.
CAD model of the robot. You can download the tires I designed here: https://grabcad.com/library/rc-tire-1
I designed and fabricated this robot with a team of other electrical and computer engineers to compete in the IGVC competition sponsored by DARPA. GPS, Stereoscopic vision, sonar and other systems helped it navigate autonomously.

ROBOTICS
Early in my career I got involved in robotics. This allowed me to land a job at the California Mechatronics Center which specialized in building low cost but high functionality robots for various organizations and companies.

CONSTRUCTION
I am proud to be a 5th generation carpenter. I have been building since I was young. Recently I have been helping develop homes and facilities, but the most enjoyment comes the few times a year when I get to pound nails with my family.

DESIGN & MAPPING
To be clear, I am not an architect. A large portion of my business involves assisting architects and engineers with plot plans and other technical documents for
farms, homeowners and industry partners.
I have designed a number of factories, from medical device foundries in shipping containers, to large scale extraction facilities.

I can create the CAD models for you, or you can email the .stl file directly to rhuber@hubercad.com for quote.
PRODUCT DESIGN
I have collaborated with a number of startups and established businesses to develop products from the ground up.

TOP SECRET
Many of my clients have not released their products for purchase so I am unable disclose their identities yet. This is part of the fun of being in product development!
I have a Non-Disclosure Statement that we can sign prior to discussing your ideas.
