This is a little project I decided to take on this summer. Created out of the lego mindstorms box plus a few other parts, it is fully aposable thanks to the motors with lots of gearing. The claw is pneumatically powered and can pick up the RoboSports foam balls. Since the picture was taken, I have tweaked it a bit. Thanks to some engineers on my team, I will have a table displaying a later verson of it at the State Lego Leauge Championship for Michigan in December. If you have any questions IM or PM me. More pics to come.

I want to get some feedback in resonse to this arm that I built. Anything would be great.

Sachiel7Cool! We actually build a mini-version of our bot from this past year with a lego kit. We had to use at least 6 motors (several for shifting the valves on the pneumatics) and the 9 volt power supply to pump the air...
But it worked just like our bot did. We had our forklift on the front, and we actually stacked up a bunch of cups...
I would shudder to see what would happen if it met your arm though 
Really nice!
