Day 52 of Learning Robotics!

I was a bit worried about making space for sensors and wiring and that’s when I started looking into force sensors and possible replacements. I was hoping to find a cheaper, smaller way of dealing with the issue when I ran into the ALFHA research paper. This paper confirms that with my gear ratio, I should be able to calculate the force applied to an object (in case my robotic arm bumps into something). That’s pretty cool and it’s motivated me to read and cover more research papers :)
