Plan A

This is our Plan A for the Can-Can challenge. Please click to enlarge the photo. There is one servo motor, that would be connected to a 16-teeth gear. This gear would be connected to two bigger gears. The motor is the one that would open and close the clamps As you can see from the picture, there is also a rubber strip at the part where the can is supposed to be gripped. This is to increase friction so that the can does not slip away.

Btw, we could find a way to make the images clearer, so we would gladly show it to you on Thursday.
