Let's build the robot arm's frame

Today we build the robotic arm that came in your kit. Right now we will control it with our hand, but soon you will have servo motors control the fingers! 

Now we will learn about servo motors, how they move, and how they want to use them to get your robot hand to move. 

If you do not have this robot hand, it is not 100% required but here is a link to it if you want to purchase it.

Each student then super glues servos onto their hand to control the strings.
Students then try to get it working in their design using their
potentiometer code.
