The design, optimization, development, and testing of a prototype Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) gripper mechanism is presented. The gripper is designed to be mounted to an omni-directional multi-rotor used for aerial perching allowing the UAV to service structures it lands on. Design cues from robotic hands were used to design a gripper that can grasp a wide range of objects while keeping the mechanism lightweight but structurally strong enough to be used as landing gear. Two prototype grippers were built and successfully tested.
