Needless to say, we are excited for Dallas.

Been hearing rumors all season about this thing. Glad it's out in the wild. Can't wait to see this machine in action. Hopefully we'll get to play together at Bayou.

The quarter sec can grab is insane.

How are those arms so fast?!?

Well done!

Motion profile + a ridiculously oversized motor for the job + fishing pole whip

Basically, the brute force method.

Not to appear to be silly, but I think they got the idea after your user photo. Isn't that what the arm on the left is doing??

[Scott Morgan]

That's one fast can grab.

I'd like to see this "Palletizing" arm in action. Looks way different than the other stack building systems I've seen so far.

I had been joking that I was hoping you'd make a FANUC arm when you came back.... you did it.

Very excited to see it!

I noticed that Paul was on a different team and saw this robot on webcast. Knew exactly where it came from, it's just black not yellow.

Any video of it in action? I can't watch the stream today.

This thing is so fun to watch. Great job!

I made the mistake of blinking and missed their bin grab.

Is the arm mounted on a turret?

4 DOF! What kind of controller are you using? Are you calculating the forward and/or inverse kinematics?
