Hey Ratchet, I’ve been digging into octopus tentacles lately and how they twist and flex—think we could rig a submersible arm to mimic that?

Absolutely! Octopus muscles are like a built‑in hydraulic system, so if we use segmented servo motors with flexible, carbon‑fiber‑reinforced joints we can replicate that fluid, almost liquid‑like motion—just need a clever damping algorithm to keep the arm from whipping around like a drunken marionette. Let's prototype with some Arduino control and a quick test in a tank—excited to see it bend and twist like the real thing!
