Hobby Hand 2.0, learn programming with this unique robotic hand

HobbyHand 2.0

If you are a robotics lover and you are also interested in learning to program in order to start developing your own projects, despite the fact that there are many very interesting alternatives on the market today, today I want to ask you HobbyHand 2.0, the second version of the open source 3D printed robotic hand, a project currently seeking funding through the famous platform Kickstarter.

This hand, like the first version of it, was developed and created seeking to offer a educational platform that offered any user, whatever their age, a platform of introduction to microcontroller, analog sensor and hardware programming. Thanks to this we find that Hobby Hand 2.0 is currently available in two different versions, on the one hand a base model that integrates an Arduino Uno board while, as an advanced option, we find a model equipped with an Arduino Mega board.

Hobby Hand 2.0, an excellent platform with which to learn programming of micro-controllers, analog sensors and hardware.

In the event that you are interested in getting this robotic hand, tell yourself that you still have several weeks to participate in the crowdfunding project. The most basic pack stands out for including a robotic hand developed on Arduino Uno, five servomotors for flexing and closing the fingers, a protector for the servomechanism and an analog controller. The price of this pack is about 125 dollars, 112 euros at the current exchange rate.

If, on the other hand, you prefer the most advanced model equipped with the Arduino Mega board, the price of it rises up to 175 dollars, about 157 euros at the current exchange rate. If the project comes to fruition and the company's delivery deadlines are met, orders will begin to be sent to all users as of March 2017.
