Leader Arm and Follower Arm Purchase Recommendations #6

I am a beginner. May I ask if purchasing just follower arm is sufficient to achieve the task? Is it necessary to buy the leader arm?

The short answer is you'll need both @robinupup

Longer answer is that you need some sort of device to provide the session data for controlling the robot arm. The leader provides a joint based control for the robot. Without a leader arm how would you actually move the robot arm around to record the joint angles (the demonstration) for the robot to learn from?

I'm going to open-source a simpler way to do this soon so you can use a phone or any hand tracking device to use IK to do this instead.
