new grip designs

[aguiloco]

Hello, I´m a new roboteer, and this is my fist topic, but surely not the last...

I´m waiting to get my RN-1 from this shop, and since the payment I can´t stop thinking about moding the robot, begining in the grip. I was making one hand in cheap alluminium (cuted from various trashted things) with 3 articulated fingers moved by cables. To move that cables I found that cheap micro servo, at first to make test, but I have a question; the NR-1 controller board can move that servo? thats the link:

thats what the real roboteers use for grips

I just bought 3 HSR-8498HB servos. one was to replace the broken arm one, the other two are for my hands project.
While I like Bauer's grippers, I am the type of person that wants to build my own.
I am just at the design stage at the moment and am looking at what type of grip function I want.
I have noted that the Robo-one rules do not cover a particular attack method involving modified hands.

hey Marcus.
i myslef have not bought the grips yet, they are out of stock.
u think you can have a spinning blade incorporated into the grips?
hehe just kidding
please do post your design, itl be nice to see what u have in mind. some great people might even give soem feedback

[DirtyRoboto]

For the spinning blade you would need the other type of servo. I think its just a regular RC 360 deg servo rated for the RN1 controller.

When I get the plastic insert hands out after installing my grippers I am looking to put a custom BB gun assembly into the RN1 cosmetic hand.
I have also plans for a 600kv stunner for the other hand but this is not a legal thing in the UK. Mind you I can always blame Takeshi!

Lookin Good !! 8O 8O

[beermat]

I dont know too many humans with three fingers.......

[onesandzeros]

haha
thats looking sharp man.
itl be amazing if u kan get ol the joint working smooth

[aguiloco]

the first prototype is all ready, with full articulate fingers working perfect, only need the servo to do gripping test. This is the first chance, I will make another two prototypes, one of them with 4 fingers and the other without fingers but with the same articulation system.
In order to get a good grip power surely I will need a high torque micro servo, anyone can tell me some mini servos with high torque?
thanks
