a few things: the super arm would not work because there would be way too much weight out way too far, at least without a counter-arm. and if you have two arms of that size, can anyone say "weight issues"??

our end effector could be similar to our 2001 'bot (see left) but after very rigorous 5-minute test periods, we couldn't pick up one bin from the ground after being knocked over. guess that means we have to alter something...
or maybe not...

hehehe
i designed an end-effector that uses something like 238's toy handout from last year, remember those?

fun stuff. all i can say is that it uses "gravity." well, g/l to anyone making the uber-arm.
