Beo-Bot gripper and Ping Mounting

Justin13

Hi

I am thinking about buying some Beo-Bot accessories and wanted to know can I mount the gripper (http://www.parallax.com/Store/Robots/RoboticAccessories/BoeBotAccessories/tabid/820/CategoryID/89/List/0/SortField/0/Level/a/ProductID/311/Default.aspx ) and the Ping mount (http://www.parallax.com/Store/Robots/RoboticAccessories/BoeBotAccessories/tabid/820/CategoryID/89/List/0/SortField/0/Level/a/ProductID/248/Default.aspx) on one robot at the same time.

Thanks for your help.

The stock Ping))) mount bolts to the chassis and will interfere with the operation of the gripper. It might work if you mounted it higher up on the Board of education itself.

I made my own mount using a mini-servo that mounts the Ping))) in just this manner. It's pictured on the right below:
