Familiarization with the Servo Robot System
‘The lower end of the upper arm carries the gears and pulleys that drive the forearm,
wrist, and gripper. Tha.uoper arm and forearm have up and down motions.
The wrist and gripper work together to pick up items and move them to desired
locations. The wrist moves up and down to conta the two-finger gripper. Itcan also
rotate in a 360-degree clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The fingers of the
ripper move in an open or clase mation.
The operation of the Servo Robot is controlled using the Hand-Held Terminal or
trom a host computer with @roboties® software,
Robot Controller
The Robot Conta is Grain ofthe Servo Robo. is a specalzed computer
with ports, switches, and programming capabilties that enable ito control the Servo
Robot and external device(s).
