Re: How many teams using grippers?
As it stands right now, we've done about 4 prototypes and 1 production iteration of picker-uppers. The one that's complete is a pneumatic-driven inside claw that's optimized for the triangle and circle, yet also picks up the square by default (since it's smaller).
We have an interesting concept for a roller claw, but those students/that mentor are going to focus their attention elsewhere for now since we have a nice arm design that will accept any claw we put on it. Our overall goals are to have a complete robot to test by the end of week 5, regardless of how imperfect it may be in niche scenarios.
