Catching up Again

Wow, time really flies... I spent a big chunk of July catching, and recovering from pneumonia. I opened my web store for Bioloid accessories - http://www.huvrobotics.com. People are buying IMUs and USB bus interface boards. I'm still waiting on a new stencil for my foot pressure sensor board, so I can start making them again without wasting 2 boards out of 3.

Oh yeah, and I got the first prototype new gripper working. This new gripper is designed to use a couple AX-12's as the actuators, just to make things simple.

Here's a movie of it working: Gripper-Working (5.9 MB)

The Brain Engineering guys are going to use these grippers on a new version of BrainBot that I'm working on.

*The BrainBot project is directed and funded by the Brain Engineering Lab and Neukom Institute
