5. Making the fingers move
Proceeding further
There are some precautions one should take into account when trying to assemble a real working hardware model:
- The servo motors are of different power and might require different power supply schemes, as the UNO board may not supply enough power, especially when powered through USB connection.
- In real life it might be useful to employ a force sensor at the end of each finger and use it for stopping a motion. Such sensors could be read through analog inputs, therefore different setup for buttons (rearrangement and additional components) will be necessary.
