Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

Cool ideas, amazing implementations, and as always works on a real robot! ;)

I know what this is for. This is so that they can install a gun on that arm for shooting at targets, or, if the gun gets detached somehow, the robot will pick up a kitchen knife and stab the targets.

That spinning claw is very similar to what i had in mind for the wheeled bot. (As i said It could stand up and then deploy hands, it would be amazing).

Please don't use AI voices like this. Even the most unenthusiastic engineer speaking is 100x better than this.
