A Multi-Function Two Degree of Freedom Robotic Arm for Simple Grip and Shake Action

Akinwumi Joseph Muritala Ismail and Ofoegbu Edward

The process of moving materials tends to be an issue due to human fatigue and a low degree of repeatability. As man isn't a machine; his efficiency is never 100%, and thus cannot work for a prolonged period. Pick and place actions are inevitable, ranging from small Do It Yourself (DIY) applications to major assembling operations. Manual assembly in cottage industries wastes time and requires effort; implementing robotic arms will help small DIY applications and assembling companies eradicate the problem mentioned above.
