Re: Pneumatic Claw
Well that is your choice, the question is, is there a way to make a 3 fingered claw designed to grab the Tetra's, pneumatic or electric.

well yes, plenty. now the real question is, is there a reliable yet simple way of grabbing a tetra or tetras quickly?
id say if you're going 3 prong pneumatic just might keep things simpler. but thats just me who has never built a robot that uses more motors than the drive system and always incorporates pneumatic components
