I had this pretty simple concept in mind for a gripper. The idea is to pick up components that have "handles" that have been designed for the gripper, so it doesn't have to be very good. This little prototype seems to work, but it needs a stronger return spring. 12V supply. Turns out superglue is a pretty useful way to join aluminium and steel :)
