When a splinter is stuck in your thumb, you need a tweezers to pull it out. |
Using a tweezers is like having tiny fingers to grip something very small. Some robots have a tweezers-type tool. It's programmed to grip an object securely without crushing it. Grip your Tweezers near the hinge and squeeze. Can you make the tips touch? Now grip the tweezers closer to the tips and squeeze. Try to pick up something light, like a piece of paper. Which grip makes it easier to do this? Is this the same grip that lets you squeeze tighter?
