I think it was driven by two window motors and, to my great surprise at the time, if their arm was horizontal when the power when off, that gripper fell!
Anyway, I have no idea what sort of robot we'll be designing but odds are I will want some of those Denso motors. Any teams in the Boston Area willing to loan/donate a couple to BOOM DONE.?
PM me. I promise a shout out to you in one of our videos, whether we use them or not.

I have a couple I can send you if no one up there responds. We don't use them often enough to keep them around and if we need them I can get them from other local teams.
