Chapter 2: Building an Industrial Robot Claw

Industrial robots have been around for a long time. In many cases, industrial robots are not the humanoid-looking robots we imagine when thinking of robots. Instead, many are robot claws that can do a wide variety of tasks, such as surgery, welding, assembly, painting, and more. In this chapter, you are going to build a robotic claw to pick up an object to better understand how these claws work and operate. In the following image, you can see what you will be building:
