I’ve started doing robotics again after decades working in software and systems engineering. For a few years I’ve been building robots with servos and arduinos as the controller. They weren’t very smart, the servos were too slow and too weak. So I looked at Huggingface Lerobot project. I ordered the servos for the SO-ARM101. Trained it to pick up a ball and throw it. That sucker launched it across the room. I’ve now replaced the gripper with a TPU soft grip. And I’m training it to use a pen and paper. These newer Dynamixel and Feetech servos are far more capable than the old RC servos I was using for years. They have torque and position sensing.
