The symmetrical design and flexible fingers mean that the robot can transport objects on either side of its body. For humans, ...

EPFL's robotic appendage features fingers that bend both ways and is designed to retrieve objects from spaces too hazardous ...

The robot can bend, grasp and carry in ways humans can’t, which could help it navigate spaces too confined for human arms.

EPFL engineers unveil a detachable robotic hand that crawls into tight spaces, grips objects both ways, and returns ...

This New Skittering Robotic Hand Could Reach Things You Can't ...

Unlike traditional robotic grippers fixed to stationary arms, this dual-mode manipulator functions both as a conventional end effector and as an independent mobile tool. Once undocked, ...

In tests, the hand was able to detach from its arm, crawl like a small multi-legged robot, and retrieve up to three objects ...
