The NXTLOG Robotic Arm Challenge

Robotic arms are no longer the work of science fiction writers. They are shaping the future of industry and medicine. Bionic arms give amputees a new lease on life enabling them grab, reach, and hug. Industrial arms make assembly line tasks safer and more efficient. They even allow astronauts to work better in space. On the fun side, robotic arms can be used as candy grabbers, pancake flippers, or even back scratchers!

Your first NXTLOG challenge of the new decade is to design a MINDSTORMS NXT robotic arm.

This can be:

The bionic arm of tomorrow
A robotic arm designed with many of degrees of freedom
An industrial robotic arm
A just for fun robotic arm
