Geno,
The Software and Robotics club sounds like a good idea. I can also try to
come to the Autonomous Power Wheels meeting. I'm not available to come this
week.
I would like to build a robotic hand. I found an open-source hand that is
part of the InMoov robot.
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:17773
http://inmoov.fr/build-yours/
Does anyone know of a better open source hand out there? This website seems
to be very thorough. According to the website, I'll need:
Electronic : Arduino uno and Mega microcontroler
Servo motors : HK15298B, Hitec HS805BB and MG996
Software : MyRobot Lab and python scripting
It also says the 3D printer should have 12 x 12 x 12 volume. Does ours have
that much space?
Does anyone have any idea how long this will take me to make total? I just
wondering if it'll be like weeks or months?

Thats a good idea Cathy. We already have the unmanned vehicles group,
which is mostly autonomous power wheels, although it deals with all robots
because the autonomous power wheels is itself a robot, just a very large
one. People who want to learn about robots should come to autonomous power
wheels because most of the people present during the meetings have
experience building robots. The only thing is, everyone is usually busy
working specifically on the power wheels car.
How about we do this. Software Club isnt doing much these days. Since all
robots require software, how about we rename the software club "Software
and Robotics Club". I will bring this up during the members meeting
tommorow.

I think we should have a robot class and or robot group.

We would love to help you get started with robotics. There are a few
things you need. An enclosure, motors, gears, wheels, and a microprocessor
(most likely Arduino). Also sensors. What kind of robot were you thinking
about?

Hi everyone,
Thank you for the introduction Chad. I am also plan to make something
robotic, but I don't have much experience with robotics so I will
appreciate any help.

Hey all!
I want to introduce everyone to our new member Biju. She recently
joined and is working on some fun projects with the laser cutter.
If you see her in the shop, welcome her into the community!
Cheers!
