I was just looking for planetary gear motors myself only two days ago, because of the exceeded size the servomotors has, which takes too much place inside the palm. You have been way ahead. I wish you had posted this a few days ago, it would have saved me a bit of time.<br />I had found the Maxon (http://www.maxonmotor.com/maxon/view/content/products)motors that also have planetary gears with all ratios available. Your post made me look for Tamiya, and from there to the Pololu motors with planetary gears.<br />I'm thinking of replacing the servo for the finger with this one : http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1109<br />And adding a DRV8801 Single Brushed DC Motor Driver Carrier<br />I would keep the same mechanism as you saw for InMoov finger prosthetic. Do you think it is possible to simply hook this up to an Arduino?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06964775091618957956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685015101855369326.post-48255156506180692162013-07-19T20:40:39.827-07:002013-07-19T20:40:39.827-07:00Very interesting, wouldn't measuring the curre...Very interesting, wouldn't measuring the current draw give a similar reading of force?Peter Heimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06431187501569592558noreply@blogger.com
