A new robotic hand resembles a beloved character from the Addams Family franchise. Like the sentient human hand called Thing, ...

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

The symmetrical design and flexible fingers mean that the robot can transport objects on either side of its body. For humans, that would look like holding a ball in your palm while simultaneously ...

This New Skittering Robotic Hand Could Reach Things You Can't ...

EPFL's robotic appendage features fingers that bend both ways and is designed to retrieve objects from spaces too hazardous ...

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

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.

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

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 ...

Unlike traditional robotic grippers fixed to stationary arms, this dual-mode manipulator functions both as a conventional end effector and as an independent mobile tool. Once undocked, ...

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) ...

MIT complains that designing a robot hand is time-consuming and takes a lot of iterations. They want to improve that using a unique approach by giving a modular hand tactile sensors. They claim this ...
