The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized many sectors, including robotics. One of the most fascinating ...

Growing up, we learn to push just hard enough to move a box and to avoid touching a hot pan with our bare hands. Now, a robot ...

Oregon State University researchers have created an artificial environment that simulates apple trees to collect data on its robot hand, regardless of growing season. This fake apple is attached via a ...

Designing an anthropomorphic robotic hand seems to make a lot of sense — right up until the point that you realize just how complex the human hand is. What works well in bone and sinew often doesn’t ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers found that working with a humanoid robot can change how our brains map the body, making its hand feel like part ...

An autonomous robotic system detects toxic heavy metals in water using self-powered nanosensors and ambient heat, enabling safe, real-time environmental monitoring without external power or manual ...

Researchers at the Zurich-based ETH public university, along with a US-based startup called Inkbit, have done the impossible. They’ve printed a robot hand complete with bones, ligaments and tendons ...

Hand exoskeleton robot attached to the digits of the right hand. The device can flex and extend the metacarpophalangeal joints of the individual digits. Click to expand... That word brought back a few ...
