Hi everybody, this is my new LEGOTIC-hand. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/chrismaker/LEGOTIC-Hand/hand1.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/chrismaker/LEGOTIC-Hand/hand11.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/chrismaker/LEGOTIC-Hand/hand12.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/chrismaker/LEGOTIC-Hand/hand2.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/chrismaker/LEGOTIC-Hand/hand2.jpg Each finger is auto-adaptative, an IR sensor (built in Philo's Lab) detects near objects. I spent a lot of time on geometry and design, as you can see I' ve used Bionicle part. One cylinder acts thumb. One cylinder acts other fingers. Each finger is independent and auto-adaptative. Those 2 cylinders are connected on same pneumatic switch. When providing air-pressure thumb close before other fingers. Third cylinder acts wrist. Rotation sensor detects hand position. (real rotation is x6 for best accuracy) Turntable is not yet motorized because the motor will be on following arm part. So the work is still in progress........ Chris.

You have done an excellent job with the mechanical operation and the appearance. Congratulations! -- Bob Fay http://www.ozbricks.com/bobfay/

Very clever use of Bionicle parts, would be a winner if a "Technic lame parts" contest was organized! XP to lugnet.robotics Philo
