Growing up, we learn to push just hard enough to move a box and to avoid touching a hot pan with our bare hands. Now, a robot hand has been developed that also has these instincts. Subscribe to our ...

Designing an anthropomorphic robotic hand seems to make a lot of sense — right up until the point that you realize just how complex the human hand is. What works well in bone and sinew often doesn’t ...

A California-based company has introduced a robotic hand that can perform multiple tasks. Named Aero Hand Open, the TetherIA’s open-source, underactuated robotic hand is meant to solve the robotic ...

Sanctuary AI's Phoenix robot is certainly an impressive beast, with hydraulically actuated hands that are incredibly dextrous. Well, those hands have recently become even more useful, as each one is ...

The robot hand is reported to benefit from precise torque control, with each of the fingers able to muster up to 10 N of fingertip pinch force. The four joints of each finger are driven by motors ...

A robotic hand can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming. When you reach out your hand ...

The robotic hand can crawl around on its own, grab small objects, and bring them back to the arm. The robotic hand can crawl around on its own, grab small objects, and bring them back to the arm. is a ...

In a potentially groundbreaking advancement in prosthetics and body augmentation, scientists at the University of Cambridge have developed a robotic, 3D-printed "Third Thumb" that can be used to pick ...

Recent advancements in technology have revolutionized the world of assistive and medical tools, and prosthetic limbs are no exception. We've come a long way from the rigid, purely cosmetic prosthetics ...
