Manipulator

Notes: Banebot motors are being selected with the criteria of minimizing weight and the size of the transmission. Sunday's model cconcept has been revised in a brainstorm by Mike and Alex. The new version has a belt tensioner. The manipulator has been fully tested and was able to scoop the tube without pushing the tube into the gripper.

Discussion on use of a sensor - electrical suggests a banner sensor to tell if the tube was correctly positioned.
