Arm

(1/14/15) Jake Johnson

An overview of the Arm, based on the current design:

The Arm will have an onboard fuse box. 12V in, and each effectuator will be fused separately.

Descriptions of each Effectuator:

Turret - 12V Power source, 5V PWM signal from Arm Master Controller.

Shoulder - 12V Power source, Mamba Micro Pro, 5V PWM Signal. Potentiometer to give positional feedback on joint angle.

Elbow - Same as shoulder.

Wrist - 2 Daisychained Dynamixel servos, 12V DC power source, driven by a PSOC programmed with the Dynamixel driver

**We don't have the hand designated by the ME's yet. Once they add that, we will have extra signals to drive the Hand and the auger.
