End Effector - Final Prototype

The final prototype of the end effector utilized a linear actuator and springs to create a gripping mechanism that could bend in more, allowing the end effector to better clamp onto rocks. Additionally, the end effector employed TPU grippers to better adjust to the rugged edges of rocks. The end effector had both a camera and a laser to make it easier for the controls team to use.
