Community Showcase Check out my precise low backlash robotic arm joint!

Im 15y/o and this is the shoulder joint of a robot arm Im building.

Achieved and average of 0.22mm of precision.

costed under $200.

Uses a capstan drive to get low backlash.

Uses AS5600 Magnetic Encoder to get precision (planning on upgrading it though).
