Think of the arm itself as a triangle. As the arm extends, the arm becomes straighter. Normal sized inexpensive arms with only 2 DoF will probably become so straight and low that other chess pieces will be knocked down. Another DoF on the arm will prevent this. Spending a few minutes with a cardboard prototype that you move by hand will quickly show you if I'm right or wrong. | |
