In this video I show you how to make robotic arm from cardboard, it's quite fun to plaw with. Especially by moving coca cola cans. You need: cardboard, 8 syringes with rubber piston, old battery, 4 ...

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 hand has been developed that also has these instincts.

A robotic hand inspired by human skin can sense how hard an object is with a single digit’s touch and work out how much force is needed to grip it before the rest of the hand closes its grasp.

A groundbreaking development has come from researchers at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan. They've created a biohybrid hand, a fusion of lab-grown muscle tissue and mechanical ...

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 ...

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 ...

The man — who had a stroke years earlier and cannot speak or move — was able to hold, move and drop objects just by imagining himself doing so Getty Researchers at UC San Francisco (UCSF) have created ...
