At about 50 per cent larger than a human hand and with only three fingers, this robot isn't quite as human-like as many others out there. However, according to Shadow Robot Company director Rich ...

Unlike traditional robotic hands, this bioinspired hand combines rigid and soft ... fragile plastic cup filled with water, using only three fingers without denting it. "We're combining the strengths ...

Now, a team at Johns Hopkins University has recreated these perks in a life-like prosthetic robot hand. At its core is a 3D-printed skeleton. Each finger has three independently controlled joints made ...

A team of engineers has recently created a breakthrough prosthetic hand that can deftly handle everyday objects.

This new bionic hand is a big step forward. It translates touch signals into nerve-like messages, helping the brain ...

Scaling up biohybrid robots has been difficult due to the weak contractile force of lab-grown muscles, the risk of necrosis in thick muscle tissues, and the challenge of integrating biological ...

The researchers found that the prosthetic hand could securely grasp 15 everyday objects ranging from a soft toy to a metal ...

Johns Hopkins University engineers have created a groundbreaking prosthetic hand that can grip everyday objects like a human ...

Their work, published in Science Robotics, introduces a novel control approach that combines the natural coordination patterns of our fingers with ... pins such as robot hands normally do." ...

An experimental device has been designed to help such folks lift cumbersome objects, by adding a robotic ... hand mounted on top. That hand in turn incorporates two articulated polymer fingers ...

A recent breakthrough in robotics could help amputees regain some of their lost capabilities. The new prosthetic hand design combines layers of sensors with a hybrid robotic structure and machine ...
