New To The World Of Robotics

Hello everybody my name is Jesse Kissel. I live in New Zealand.

I have browsed some of the projects that have been posted and visited the forums, and I see that this community of builders and others are very encouraging and supportive, which I feel is a great place to be in for a newcomer like me.

My teacher @Tameion and I will be working on a project to make a robot arm for a fellow students' wheelchair.

Working in this forum will be part of my assessment evidence so I look forward to your interaction.

I took some measurements on the wheelchair and designed this thing on Sketch-up, then made it with the 3D printer.

Edit: I am having trouble hotlinking images..

Hey Jesse....

Look for the words Attach File at the bottom right of the page and chose your file then click upload.

You will see a line of text that looks like the line below without all the spaces [ i m g ] / u p l o a d s / M o v i n g _ h o u s e . j p g . s c a l e d 5 0 7 6 4 9 [ / i m g ]

Your image should appear once you have saved your post..... I have tested it here with this image on team work!

Awesome Jesse....

I particularly want to see how this is going to interface with the ARC hardware/software. I would love to see some more pictures or even a video please...
