Gripper (Robot Arms)

Key Features

- Easy control interface (knob control)

- Remote control capability (Grip/Release)

- Object detection (In progress)

Background

When I was in Blimp team (GT-Robotics), the blimp body requires docking station that can be controllable in distance.

First prototype of gripper was able to grip the object with user input. At the time, Arduino platform was used to supply power and control the servo motor.

Second prototype used new IC chip in addition to 3.3V battery pack instead of Arduino UNO. Also, I designed remote controller to implement its function in certain distance away from the gripper.
