Researchers from the University of Cambridge and University College London have developed a new type of responsive “ ...

This robotic hand is just as dextrous in the dark as it is when it can “see” its surroundings, just like a human hand is when trying to feel around for something. This is proprioceptive ...

A new synthetic “skin” gives robots the human touch. The low-cost, durable and highly-sensitive material can be added to ...

Granted, it is hard to assess how the robot is working under its fashionable black and gray sweatsuit, and some of the movements are eerily human-like. On the other hand, with the recent explosion ...

"The goal from the beginning has been to create a prosthetic hand that we model based on the human hand's physical and sensing capabilities—a more natural prosthetic that functions and feels like a ...

Developed by the Shadow Robot Company in collaboration with Google DeepMind, it's a three-fingered robotic hand that uses tendon-style drivers to elicit 12 degrees of freedom.

Over the past decades, roboticists have developed increasingly advanced systems that can emulate some human capabilities and ...

Researchers from the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan have developed a biohybrid robot hand powered by lab-grown human muscle tissue, capable of performing complex gestures like ...

A robotic hand can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming.

Stretchy, low-cost gelatin skin gives robots touch sensitivity using EIT and machine learning. It detects gentle taps and ...
