A modular robotic hand that crawls, grasps from multiple angles, and operates independently—pointing to new possibilities for electronics-driven automation and compact robotic systems.

LASA/CREATE/EPFL CC BY SA A robotic hand developed at EPFL surpasses the limits of human dexterity with a dual-thumbed, reversible-palm design ...

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

The hand can detach from its arm and crawl across surfaces to retrieve objects outside the normal reach of a stationary ...

The result is something akin to Thing from “The Addams Family” — with all the scamper and skill, but none of the skin or ...

Introduction to EPFL's robotic arm and detachable hand. How the robotic hand was developed. How the hand can grasp and carry objects. Researchers at EPFL's (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) ...

Like something out of the Addams Family, scientists have created a detachable robotic hand that can crawl and grab objects.

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 ...

(Nanowerk News) MIT researchers have created an interactive design pipeline that streamlines and simplifies the process of crafting a customized robotic hand with ...

To reliably complete household chores, assemble products and tackle other manual tasks, robots should be able to adapt their ...

How many times have you said to yourself ‘if I only had an extra hand’? Well, it’s increasingly looking like that wish might come true. Scientists and engineers are exploring how extra fingers and ...
