Now, engineers at Virginia Tech have developed a robotic system that helps bridge that gap, by making something as intricate ...

Robotic load mastery The S01 offers an 11 pounds (5 kilograms) payload, setting a notable standard in the industry. When integrated with MagicLab’s humanoid robot, MagicBot, the system can lift ...

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.

Claws and robotic hands with fingers are great for picking up things like a box, a cup, or a car door. What they suck at is lifting soft or irregularly shaped objects such as a plant or fragile ...

Technology Wooden robot hand can lift objects and withstand high temperatures Robot grippers made from soft plastics will melt in the heat, but a wooden alternative can do the job just fine By ...

MIT-developed 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.

The robot uses different attachments to perform different tasks, with the CSIRO hand being utilized to gently lift corals from one tank and transfer them to the next tank down the line. Better ...

The hand itself is a custom-made exoskeleton with a motor that applies force to the lower portion of each finger in order to extend it. To retract a finger, one of the exoskeleton's accordion-like ...
