Software abstractions for controlling grippers. #234

Closed AhmedSamara closed 9 years ago

AhmedSamara commented 9 years ago

-Will involve instantiating motor, or DMCC motor abstraction.

AhmedSamara commented 9 years ago

Lots of progress in #195 as a stepper motor abstraction is now functional. (Stepper motors are used heavily in most gripper abstraction ideas).

We now have a fully working abstraction for gripping and moving the rubiks cube.

The etch-a-sketch gripper also seems to be working well as far as software control, though it has problems physically reaching the simon. @kvijay1995

The etch-a-sketch gripper and drawer also works fine on the Arduino, so it's just a matter of porting code to python now. @ChadZhongqiangChen

These all exist and work, it's just a matter of tieing them together to actually solve the competition now!
