Robotic systems with mass detection, and related systems and methods

This is a robot gripper designed to accurately weigh objects. It uses a force sensor positioned underneath the main structure to measure vertical forces. Special brackets hold the robot's connection tubes in a way that prevents them from interfering with the sensor's readings, making sure the weight measurements are precise.

Why it matters: While the mechanical principles remain, advancements in 3D printing since 2022 could simplify the fabrication of the custom isolation brackets. Additionally, the increasing sophistication of robotic control systems benefits from the high-fidelity force data this design provides.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateCustom mechanical parts, force sensor, integration.
