Hi everyone,
This is a project done by me and my partner Moran Davoodi, the project was done under the supervision of Yoav Medan, in the Bio-medical engineering department at the Technion and in conjunction with Haifa3D.
The goal of the project was to add the sense of touch to a 3D printed Raptor Reloaded,
this was achieved using 3 type of sensors: pressure, location and temperature (the temperature sensor is mainly used to protect the hand from excessive heat). The feedback to the user is passed using a feedback band which is based on 2 servo motors and a vibration motor.
The entire design is based on simple off the shelf parts and the cost is ~60$ in addition to the regular cost of the Raptor Reloaded.
In order to build this design you will need some knowledge and experience in Arduino and electronics and 3D printing.
In addition to the design itself an emulator was developed in order to test the design, the emulator can be useful for developers working on improving the Raptor Reloaded.
The mechanical model is based on e-NABLEs Raptor Reloaded and the Carmel thumb.
There is a more detailed explanation in the attached project overview. Assembly instructions are also attached.
A link to a video showing the features of the device:
