juggling robot

[Bill_B]

I'm reminded of the Festo water juggler that uses their pneumo-muscle devices. Link has escaped memory or is on another computer.

Both videos show dropped balls [not a complaint] so I suppose the video released may be the longest segment with the best performance result they tried. Again, not a complaint. We dress and neaten for photos we think will be archival.

It does decidedly demonstrate mechanical agility already. Next challenge, Mr. Phelps, juggle raw eggs or variety of objects like ball, hammer, and cigar box.

Funnels were used to help recover from the unpredictability of where the thrown balls would go.
