Recent advancements in technology have revolutionized the world of assistive and medical tools, and prosthetic limbs are no exception. We've come a long way from the rigid, purely cosmetic prosthetics ...

A groundbreaking development has come from researchers at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan. They've created a biohybrid hand, a fusion of lab-grown muscle tissue and mechanical ...

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 ...

What if the future of robotics and prosthetics could fit in the palm of your hand? Enter the Wuji Hand, a new innovation that redefines what’s possible in human-like motion and precision. With its 20 ...

Researchers at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) have extracted the building blocks of precise hand ...

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) ...

A 16-year-old student from Bristol has built an anthropomorphic robotic hand entirely from Lego parts, and it performs almost as well as professional research models. Called the Educational SoftHand-A ...
