It was featured on my site for a few days, but I forgot to announce it here: a
pneumatic arm. Loosely modelled
after human arm, it has 6 pneumatically actuated joints.
You will find there detail images,
movies...
Note: I first tried to build the support tower using only studless beams, but
the result was not stiff enough, and I had to rebuilt it using the more
traditional beams-and-plates method. Any tips and tricks to build a similar
structure with studless beams?
Enjoy,
