Re: pic: MVRT115 Broken Arm
Our team went with an arm which sticks out in front of the robot. We recognize that this puts our arm at significant risk of damage, but we have done several things to remedy the problem. Our arm is made of a material with enough flex to move out of the way if impacted near the tip and our arm mount is designed to slip rather than break if impacted.
