Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Low Cost Robot Arm

^Modifying cheap servos so that a robot arm can repeatedly insert a pencil lead. It's a lot of work though.
Most interesting application though fall out of the scope of old-fashioned robotic arms, i.e. when you need to sense the real world in a non controlled context. For instance to develop a robot that can trim wilted flowers, you'll need to measure the real world, and as soon as you do that, you can just sense your robot arm too, no need for fancy, ultra-precise actuators.
Look at this BOM: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_3yhWjodSNNYlpxkRCPIlvIA...
Do you really need the $6,129.95 & $3,549.95 robot arms for the kind of application described ? I doubt it. I'm not a robotician, and would love some feeback on this idea.

UPDATE** Fixed problems with 14 servos running on UNO, old post/problem in comments.
A quick solution is to load the horn, with springs or rubber bands but will reduce total force output. You can theoretically try this implementing this Servo project by Adam Bäckström. https://github.com/adamb314/ServoProject
