Control System for a 3D-Printed Pneumatic Gripper
Currently, robotic hands lack degrees of freedom, only being able to move, pick up, hold, and release objects. The present study builds upon previous research by using Arduino to control a pneumatic gripper at different angles. The focus is to be able to control the finger by supplying it with different pressure values to support twisting in addition to different bend angles of the finger. Due to how easily replicated the code is, this research could be easily replicated and explored further in future studies, creating a basis for high amounts of gripper control for industrial and biomedical use.
