Humanoid robots demand motors with precision and compactness, and the EPC91104 is specifically designed to meet those needs for applications like small joint actuation,” stat ...

Engineers create GRIP-tape, a soft, low-cost robotic gripper made from measuring tape, ideal for safely handling delicate ...

The as-yet-unnamed robot uses jaka zhu7 robotic arms, each with a multi-functional massage hand installed at their ends. These “hands” have been meticulously designed to mimic ...

Steel measuring tape is an interesting material, in that it's rigid enough to hold its shape when extended, but flexible enough that it gives way under pressure. Scientists have taken advantage of ...

“This design is ideal for powering compact, precision motors in humanoid robots, such as those used for wrist, finger ... 08D NEMA 34 motor from Teknic using space vector pulse-width modulation. If ...

How does a robotic arm or a prosthetic hand learn a complex task like grasping and rotating a ball? Researchers address the classic 'nature versus nurture' question. The research demonstrates that the ...

Beneath the rubbery skin are skeletal robotic fingers of the sort ... This latest iteration is a bionic hand, with each finger driven by its own motor. Inside of the molded forearm are two ...

The team implanted tiny sensors in his brain—in the motor cortex ... he’s also felt warmth and tingling sensations in the robot fingers, making him “happy, relieved, and hopeful.” ...

It could also differentiate between textures correctly more than 98% of the time, surpassing the performance of soft robotic fingers and rigid prosthetic fingers.

But in reality, having a vat of skin at the ready allowed researchers to give a mechanical finger a layered covering that looks and acts much like human skin. To generate the skin, the researchers ...
