Researchers from Ajou University in South Korea have created an amazing new robotic hand. A new article published in Nature Communications describes the device, named the ILDA hand, which weighs just ...

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 ...

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 ...

While roboticists have introduced increasingly advanced systems over the past decades, most existing robots are not yet able to manipulate objects with the same dexterity and sensing ability as humans ...

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 ...

Inspired by the effortless way humans handle objects without seeing them, engineers have developed a new approach that enables a robotic hand to rotate objects solely through touch, without relying on ...

Researchers have successfully created a robotic hand with bones, ligaments and tendons using 3D printing for the first time. A team from ETH Zurich in Switzerland were able to accomplish the complex ...

Prosthetic hands have long struggled to replicate the dexterity and functionality of natural hands, often limiting users to a single grasp function at a time. This limitation has made everyday tasks, ...

Oregon State University researchers have created an artificial environment that simulates apple trees to collect data on its robot hand, regardless of growing season. This fake apple is attached via a ...

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 ...

Human touch is an amazing sense, and the human hand is an incredible tool. We can pinch feathers and heave dumbbells. We can grip rough rocky cliffs, gently hold raw eggs, and discern tiny, ...
