Newest Robotic Hand is Sensitive as Fingertips

At ICRA 2024, we sat down with the Director of Shadow Robot, Rich Walker, to talk about the journey towards developing their newest model. Designed for reinforcement learning, the hand is extremely rugged, has three fingers that act like thumbs, and has fingertips that are highly sensitive to touch.

How genius to use cameras inside the fingertips for higher dexterity! That’s a very smart way to achieve high precision feedback on such a small surface
