Tazer] built a small desktop-sized robotic arm, and it was more or less functional. However, he wanted to improve its ability to pick things up, and attaching a pneumatic gripper seemed like the ...

[JesseDarr] recently wrote in to tell us about their dynamic Arm for Robitc Mischief (dARM), a mostly 3D printed six degrees of freedom (6DOF) robotic ... GM5208-24 for the gripper.

It will also cast an eye to the future, describing the latest technologies and innovations — from grippers that mimic the human hand, to end-of- arm tools based on the animal world.

They can also retract to bring objects closer to the robot arm the gripper is mounted on. The researchers had already worked with measuring tape as part of a grant from the National Science ...

TITAN is PIAP Space's response to the challenges surrounding servicing in-orbit satellites, currently a costly and timely ...

Robotic tools are too big for ‘keyhole’ brain surgery – but a new miniature technology using magnets could change all that.

Key to the gripper’s success is replication of an ant’s hairy jaws, which improves the capability of current robotic handling systems with minimal ... An aluminium two-jawed parallel plate gripper is ...

Scientists have developed a ‘hairy robotic gripper’ inspired by ant jaws in a research ... The researchers fitted an aluminium two-jawed parallel plate gripper with four rows of ‘hairs’ made of ...

Past development of robotic handling systems has focused on making them like the human hand and equipping them with technologies such as machine learning. The new two-jawed parallel plate gripper ...
