The Claw is On

These are our notes from Lego class today: We are working on getting our claw to be part of our robot, not just something that snaps on the robot and constantly comes off like our last robot. With the robot we have now we are turning a 90 degree angle with gears however we are using a crown gear and a spur gear instead of two bevel gears. We have finished building our new claw and now we must make it robust, so it does not fall apart. Also, we must build a limit switch by using a touch sensor that will be used along with the program we make to only let the claw move to a certain position. This means that when the limit switch is hit the claw will stop moving.
