I worked recently on the new InMoov hand (InMoov2 hand). I had
stopped a few months ago because my wire connections had something wrong
and I had burned the Arduino Nano and one of the motor driver board.
Being very buzy in all directions, kinect, legs,Nervo boards,
Makerfaires, I got driven away from it until 3 days ago.
Thanks
to Leon and Marten which gave me a set of new Arduino Nano, I could
start to work again. ( To remind who are Leon and Marten: they are
getting the Nervo boards ready and they came to the Makerfaire Paris and
Roma)
So getting back on it, I discovered what I done wrong and
finally got the index and thumb working. The script I use gives very
simple keyboard fonctions for now , although it took me a very long time
to adapt it to my needs., but it is mostly a proof of concept. I'm
still stucked though with the thumb actuation. For some reason (unknown)
it extends but doesn't retract. I wonder if the driver I'm using got
burned somehow during my previous attempts or if it is a script problem.
