Hi Everyone
This is a robotic arm that i put together, simply using ez-bits. It is primarily designed to feed someone who may not be able to do so for themselves.

The other day DJ suggested an easy way to make a touch sensor, see this thread...

Hi, I just used with ARC , an IO tiny, Ez-robot battery, the H-Bridge PWM control with a tank chassis works well,...

With a robot, of course! What did you expect? :) This is a robot shell that I built with some students in the summer for...
this is pretty rad, btw.
1 Six base and dome - $69
8 extension blocks - $4 each
1 small extension block - $4 each
2 rotation servos - $17 each
3 lever servos - $17 each
1 camera - $59
1 gripper - $22
1 EZ-B - $99
1 Battery - $15
$385
There may be cheaper options by using arms etc. which come as a bundle of a couple of servos and gripper etc.
Awesome use of the EZ-Bits!
Lynxmotion Arm
and I would rather go for this any day because of the superior customization options on the EZ-B
there are definitely cheaper options, but i still think this would be the best option for a robotic grabber arm (see above)
You above link says the arm is $359 so my math puts it only $26 cheaper... and again that is without the ezb and camera...
Oh and maybe you guys should consider selling a larger "quarter scale" servo or stronger regular servos for joints like shoulders and elbow... I know DJ asked before if we "the community" wanted quieter and stronger servos (albeit more expensive). I for one said most definitely, but I know you guys had mentioned it would be either or when it comes to the servos you sell...
Also, buy it now, save 20%
sorry, tired me is a bit of a dunce
Now I need to order another rotation servo to give my Roli's rear arm a turning wrist. You guys are going to bankrupt me

1 Hexapod base and dome
8 extension blocks
1 small extension block
2 rotation servos
3 lever servos
1 camera
1 gripper
1 EZ-B
1 Battery
To save a little money you could replace 2 of the lever servos, 1 rotation servo and the gripper with the 3 servo arm
Control of the arm may be a little more tricky, depending on how automated you need it.
P.S. This has inspired me a lot! I've been thinking of how to make something for a while and EZ-Bits are the answer... Watch this space
