Over Christmas I did a bit of 3d printing and soldering to make a "hand" which feeds the values of the potentiometers in it's knuckles to an ESP32.
Dom wanted this to give some real time data to a tool he's building in Unreal engine (I think) that positions hands in 3D models (I think)
Anyway, finished first blast at soldering all the wires last night, and have just tested it, and surprised it mostly works. There's a duff joint on the power to the little finger, and one of the wires dropped off the first knuckle of the first finger, but the fact it actually sends back a relatively sensible stream of data is a win.
Once I've fixed the duff soldering I've got to glue on some rings on the finger bones, so Dom can stick this fingers in.
