Our hands are works of art. A rigid skeleton provides structure. Muscles adjust to different weights. Our skin, embedded with touch, pressure, and temperature sensors, provides immediate feedback on ...

A "hand" similar to a bag of coffee grounds could make it easier for robots to pick up objects ranging from fragile raw eggs to big cars. Normal robotic manipulators have finger-like grippers. They ...

The man — who had a stroke years earlier and cannot speak or move — was able to hold, move and drop objects just by imagining himself doing so Getty Researchers at UC San Francisco (UCSF) have created ...

Scientists have developed a robotic prosthetic hand that offers precision fingertip control. The ultra-light system offers shape-adaptive gripping through simple motion commands. Using an innovative ...

A tiny robotic hand designed to enhance neurosurgery is one step closer to clinical practice. The microrobotic tool is created by a team of University of Toronto researchers led by Eric Diller, an ...

Researchers in Japan and Switzerland have revealed a giant robotic hand that could transform how communities prepare for and recover from natural disasters. Built through a collaboration between ...
