Re: pic: Virginia's Claw Grip Test

I want a paul. How hard is it to program him? Can we use mplab, or is it easyC only?

Nice design though. I'll have to show it to some of our guys, see if we don't borrow your idea

The hardest part is figuring out where to plug in the serial cable.

Re: pic: Virginia's Claw Grip Test

Wow that is really one huge gripper.
The question is though, how much time does it take until it grips the ball and gets hold of it ?

And of course, is there compliance with the limitations of dimensions ?

Does it fit inside the starting dimensions of the robot?

Also, does it fit within the 80-inch cylinder?

Curiosity's going to kill me one day, but this just looks plain cool.

Re: pic: Virginia's Claw Grip Test

To date, our projections show that it will fit within the foot print as well as the 80 inch cylinder. Keep in mind the picture is the first prototype. The current claw is sleeker and weighs consideralby less.
