My Robotic Arm was supposed to be delivered Monday per USPS. It finally
came in today. I plugged the robot into the controller and the controller
into the 120 VAC, it worked for the motor test. Then I plugged the control
into my laptop, ran the software, it homed, passed speed calibration test,
and I proceeded to jog to positions and write a program. I'm delighted that
it worked without having to be repaired!

So right now it has an airsoft pistol, 1911 style, in the gripper, I
programmed it to point the gun and turn on an output, then it points the gun
down and sits in a rest position, ready to go again.


How about adding an IR sensor, or video camera to let it track
movement? That would freak out an intruder. Especially if you replaced
the pistol with some real fire power.

Sounds good. How about one more addition?

Audio output, as it racks the shotgun "Go ahead. Make my day."


How about a the sound of a Phaser, and some lightning bolts, too?

Love to. May I borrow your Phaser, or some of Zeus' lightning bolts,
please? Thanks in advance.
