Servo-Driven Claw

Video files are uploaded with the source files.

This is a claw designed to grab objects of varying sizes. The grabbing arms are always parallel to each other, so any size object with flat sides can be picked up.
Its powered by an HS-311 servo running on an Arduino Uno.

I made this claw to learn about robotics and servos. I find the relationship between the gears and free arms that make the grabbing arms parallel interesting.

There is an attachment point on the side of claw for another HS-311 servo. This allows the claw to be attached onto some other system.
