The kit is intended to accompany the course ME3460: Robot Dynamics & Control at Northeastern University. The kit is a physical representation of the final project, which is currently done purely through MATLAB simulation. ## Kit Design +The robot is a 3-link planar manipulator with 3 degrees of freedom. The end effector is a simple gripper that can grab small objects. + The entire kit is composed of 3D printed parts, and off-the-shelf hardware/electronics. Students can assemble the kit without any soldering and with minimal tools.
