With up to six fingers that can bend in multiple directions, the innovative tool could one day be used to carry out tasks in tight spaces ...

The symmetrical design and flexible fingers mean that the robot can transport objects on either side of its body. For humans, ...

The robot can bend, grasp and carry in ways humans can’t, which could help it navigate spaces too confined for human arms.

This New Skittering Robotic Hand Could Reach Things You Can't ...

A robotic hand developed at EPFL surpasses the limits of human dexterity with a dual-thumbed, reversible-palm design that can ...

EPFL's robotic appendage features fingers that bend both ways and is designed to retrieve objects from spaces too hazardous ...

(Nanowerk News) To develop a more human-like robotic gripper, it is necessary to provide sensing capabilities to the fingers. However, conventional sensors compromise the mechanical properties of soft ...

A research paper by scientists at the University of Coimbra proposed a soft robotic hand that composed of soft actuator cores and an exoskeleton, featuring a multimaterial design aided by finite ...

The human hand is often hailed as the “pinnacle of dexterity”, but there’s always room for improvement. In a new study, ...

Researchers at Columbia Engineering have developed a fully integrated, sensorized robot finger. Until now, touch sensors have been difficult to integrate into robot fingers. Among the challenges were ...
