Description
Summary:Nowadays, robots are use to help human to make their life easier. Technology can change the priority of human in working field. Lots of engineer has designed a robot that can do whatever human can do and continuous invention can make robot think like human, run and also dance. In this study, designing and developing gripper that can move things from one place to another. It is a reverse engineering of research and finally develops it. The gripper is one of the end-effectors for a robotic arm. It can be autonomous or manually controlled. In this project, the robotic gripper has a 3 degree of freedom such as yaw, pitch and roll. It can move to 3 axes and can pick up an object. But in this case, it can pick a cube item (in this case an eraser) from a place to another place. By designing and developing the robotic gripper, the fundamental concept of making robot gripper can be learned. In the future the knowledge of this project can be applied in industry and increase their productivity. Beside, it can make human life easier.
