Get the new 3-Finger Gripper URCap 

This week, we developed and launched a brand new URCap with a graphical user interface for the 3-Finger Gripper. With the new URCap, you can insert Gripper instruction nodes directly in the program tree.

More precisely the new features include:

• A node for resetting and/or activating the Gripper
• Gripper move nodes
• An object detection node (packaged as an If statement)
