Re: Climbing Mechanism Ideas
with the inchworm idea, you have two separate but identical grabbers at the bottom of the robot, that the robot can sit back on and hang while the puling arm repositions itself. when the upper grabber hits the knuckle, it retracts, and the robot rests on the lower grabber. Then, when the lower grabber hits the knuckle, the upper one comes back, and the lower one retracts. We also "sit" on these, similar to the way the sliding, pump handle clamps prevent from opening, while the raising arm repositions itself.
