Re: 975's Working Arm

Interesting gripper design.

I can't really tell... is this thing rotating to the up position under it's own power? It seems like someone was always holding on to it.

If it is powered, does it spin with enough force and speed to hurdle the ball?

It also sounds like there's a motor that was running a lot in the back ground, and it seemed to be loosely coincident with the gripper opening and closing. Is your gripper electromechanical?

Cool.
