Robotic Claw Tutorial

So you want to build a robot?

We've received a lot of questions about using our robotic claw with our medium servo. After trying to answer the questions over the phone, John Trepke (SparkFun Tech Support Specialist) created a tutorial to show you just how to use this dynamic duo. The video below will show you the claw in action, but read the tutorial to see how you can do the same.

This tutorial will guide you through mounting and assembling the servo/claw, as well as how to use basic Arduino code to make the claw open and shut. Once you've got these basics down, you'll have the knowledge to incorporate the claw and servo into your next robotics project. Enjoy!
