    5 DOF Bento Arm

    University of Alberta

    The Bento Arm is comprised of five MX series dynamixels, off-the-shelf dynamixel brackets and custom 3D printed links, brackets and arm shells. The 3D printed parts have been designed to print on the commonly available reprap 3D printers in the PLA material. The parts were designed support-free, so that very little clean up is required. This system is controlled using a custom software known as BrachIOplexus developed by the BLINC lab, which is a simple windows desktop application for users that want to control our robots out of the box without necessarily having to jump into coding right away. The arm can be controlled using various input devices including myo armband and console joystick.
