How Abstraction Simplifies the Use of Grippers

As an engineer, I often need to quench my thirst for understanding on how things work. Ask my parents and they will tell you how many things I disassemble, and sometime broke in the process, when I was young! And I still have this craving for disassembling anything new that surround me. But sometimes curiosity is not your best friend, when you have to accomplish a task in an efficient way. Let me explain to you the concept of abstraction, which is pretty much the opposite of curiosity, and how we use it in our products at Robotiq.
