The hand, developed at Switzerland’s EPFL, can detach from an arm, crawl around on its own, grab small objects, and bring them back before reattaching itself.

The new robot hand goes beyond that with fingers that can feel exactly what they are touching and sense the movement and location of an object. To do this, it needed another algorithm, the rapidly ...

Researchers demonstrated a highly dexterous robot hand, one that combines an advanced sense of touch with motor learning algorithms in order to achieve a high level of dexterity. In addition, the ...

This latest robotic hand developed by the UK-based Shadow Robot Company can go from fully open to closed within 500 milliseconds and perform a fingertip pinch with up to 10 newtons of force.

AI is only one part of the project. The robot has a soft hand, which means it can interact safely with humans. The fingers are made from 3D textile-knitted fabric (using elastic and high-strength ...

In a proof-of-concept demonstration, the robot hand was able to pick up an unusual range of objects including — but not limited to — a plastic bottle, tennis ball, sponge, rubber duck, pen ...
