It ain’t easy being a robot (MARM)

The task here was to 1) open the cabinet door, 2) put the object on the ground in the cabinet, 3) close the cabinet door. A task that might take a person a few seconds, my best time using the robot was several minutes.

For those who are interested in building something similar, there are some detailed close-up pics of the bot on the blog:

I wouldn’t recommend copying the design exactly, today you can do a better job with the new parts like rack gears for the claw and worm gears for the arm itself.
