Newly created soft-rigid robotic fingers incorporate powerful sensors along their entire length, enabling them to produce a robotic hand that could accurately identify objects after only one grasp.

Sharpa's newly unveiled full-body humanoid robot North built a paper windmill, dealt cards, and clicked pictures with human-like dexterity.

If a robot is going to be grasping delicate objects, then that bot had better know what those objects are, so it can treat them accordingly. A new robotic hand allows it to do so, by sensing the shape ...

MagicLab has unveiled its first-generation dexterous hand, the MagicHand S01, boasting 11 degrees of freedom (DoF) in a single hand. Equipped with force-position control and integrated current and ...

While there are a number of optical systems that provide robotic hands with a sense of touch, most of those systems are flat, so they're confined to the fingertips. A new MIT system, however, works ...

As difficult as it is for a human to learn ambidexterity, it’s quite easy to program into a humanoid robot. After all, a robot doesn’t need to overcome years of muscle memory. Giving a one-handed ...
