Denso Robot Arm

If only we had the expertise, time and money of Denso =] then this is the kind of robotic arm we would be looking to use on our strawberry picker.


Strawberry Picker Robot Arm

The robot arm will have 5 degrees of freedom featuring a base rotation, shoulder, elbow and wrist motion and a functional gripper. At the base of the gripper will be a small sharp stainless steel scissor that will cut the stem of a strawberry as its being picked. The arm will consist of 5 servo motor actuators which will be strategically placed to give flexible, quick and 180+ angle degrees of rotation.
The rest of the arm will be constructed from 3mm thick aluminium alloy sheet.
