Summary

Industry continues to rely on robotics to achieve production goals. By the end of this chapter, we had explored the concept of industrial robots by building a robotic claw that can pick up an object and transport it to another location. Additionally, we explored how to have several motors working together to create an actual working claw. This is a classic build that must be done with any new robotic kit!

Let's now head to the next chapter and explore a whole different world of robotics by building a guitar.
