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. (Nanowerk News) When you ...

While there are now a number of robotic hands that can grasp objects, it's usually impossible to change a grasped object's orientation within the hand without releasing it. A new robotic hand is able ...

Hands move constantly during conversation. They signal emotion, stress a point, and form full languages such as American Sign Language. Behind this everyday motion lies a complex challenge. Each human ...

In a recent International Conference on Robotics and Automation paper, [Shenli Yaun] and some others from Stanford discuss the design of a roller-based robot hand that has many features that mimic the ...

Johns Hopkins University engineers have developed a pioneering prosthetic hand that can grip plush toys, water bottles, and other everyday objects like a human, carefully conforming and adjusting its ...

(Nanowerk News) Inspired by the human finger, MIT researchers have developed a robotic hand that uses high-resolution touch sensing to accurately identify an object after grasping it just one time.

The first-ever magnet-controlled prosthetic hand grasps an organic hand (Courtesy of the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies via Courthouse News). A black robotic hand grasps a human hand in front of ...

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