I have some concerns about the stability of this system, especially given that we will have to take snapshots at the extended unstable heights. There are many standardized servo-actuated claw systems to use for the claw that we can purchase online, but I also may consider 3D printing one. Most of my research has been on these 2 components while keeping these considerations in mind.<\/p>\n<p>My progress is on schedule but I think my next step is to start writing CAD and to start seriously considering what the design of the grabbing system will look like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past week, I primarily worked on the project proposal submission that was due on Sunday and the presentation slides due tomorrow with the team.
