Mantis Robot Arm - Part 1 - The Gripper

This is the first video about my new robot arm called Mantis. Just because of the looks of the eye like encoder:

I plan to do several videos about the assembly. The parts will be listed below. I try to supply you with a link. Besides I'm quite busy now so don't expect soon to many.

Adding an extra display to my laptop.

I bought on of these 9,7" LCD displays about a year ago and and last weekend I finally got some mood to build a case for it. Originally I planed to use it as display for my home automation system but this is currently far away from becoming reality. So I decided instead to use it as second screen on my work laptop I got this one cheap on ebay and since it has a native DisplayPort it's works like a charm.

The case is of course 3D-printed.

The adapter is from abusemark.com and shipped from Japan in a fair amount of time and is working fine. I have an older version as the current one but had no trouble at all.
I mountet the power switch outside but I think this is optional.
