Trying out different ways of creating movement mechanically. In order to use servos, I need to transform circular motion into linear motion to push up at the ball from the inside. After failing to create a desirable movement with wooden beads, I began to look at making an umbrella-like construction. | Trying out different ways of creating movement mechanically. In order to use servos, I need to transform circular motion into linear motion to push up at the ball from the inside. After failing to create a desirable movement with wooden beads, I began to look at making an umbrella-like construction. I also tried using muscle wire (a thin flexible wire which shrinks when current passes through and then returns to its original state) which turned out to be difficult to control and also to make quicker or larger movements. | ||
