 Now, our team did meet, but there wasn't much inspiring going on. Unless you call pegging me with more darn poof balls exciting. - Paul Copioli [more] |

TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
Team 401 is proud to present a video of today's session.
We tested our tourus grabber design and made a video from the "Point of View" of the arm. This is only prototype version therefore there is alot of sway and give in the design currently. Future versions will be much cleaner. More details of the device to come in the future! Enjoy and good luck building! Gripper Point of View |

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
Wow, you already have a manipulator prototype? We have some mock-ups made, but our manipulator isn't functional yet. Or did you cheat and use old robot parts?
Cool video! I wish GM let us bring cameras on-site... JBot EDIT: 300th post! w00t! |

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
Very nice, we have a crude press-fit minapulator prototype. It's only made of plastic, some scrap metal, and some otehr things but ti works very nicely.

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
Was that arm on your 2005 Triple Play bot (thus the video title "copperhead reloaded")?

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
Im glad to see that this design seeems to work fairly well. My team devised a design somewhat similar to yours. So atleast we know its not a failure. Good job.

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
we had several designs like that. we're just undecided in what to use. what are you guys using to lift up the arm?

 Sorry about the camera shake in the video. My driving is a bit rusty. That, and our button masher was a rookie who's never driven before. |

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
The video was a test of **one** of our 2007 arm prototypes. We are still in b/w about 3 or 4 designs, so you might be seeing more of these type of videos.
You are all correct, that was the 2005 bot. Unfortunately, the manipulatr was not very visible in that video. Once we have a more final choice, I'll be sure to get a pic or two up on CD. (by the way, good observation on the 2005 bot!) Good luck building! |

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
It sounds like your using a suction cup to lift the ringer, or it could be maybe just a arm that pulls underneath, what exactly did you use to pick up game pieces? Very nice though, especially in one week.

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
There was a lot of noise in the shop, especially saws and such. That, and our motors were loud as crap.

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
The device used to pick up the tubes was not actuated at all, actually.
It was not just a hook or just a twig taped on the end. There was alot of engineering analysis of the tubes and forces/moments acting on them to design the gripper design. Guess for now, but I am working on a quick white paper that will show how and why the concept works! |

Re: TEAM 401: Scoring Arm Prototype - Point of View
Nice video-
Care to show us what the side view and front view of the gripper looks like? |
