Figures 1A, 2A, and 3A all refer to the model design for the done buggy's claw. #1 All refer to the area where the claw is able to grasp onto plant samples and #2 refers to the gear system that can be used when the actual system is created. As seen in the figures, the inside of the claw possesses small groves or "teeth" which are going to help hold onto the samples the robot collects. However, they will be small enough so as to not damage the sample beyond analysis. As seen in the gear system, the design will include 2 idle gears so that the two halves of the claw close and open at the exact same time. In addition, the gears must be meshed so that the claw opens and closes directly along the center of the robot. If the gears are not aligned, the claw may open and close incorrectly.
The scale of the model is:
1 inch = 1.5 inches
