Researchers from the University of Cambridge have designed a robotic hand that can successfully grasp objects using just the movement of its wrist and feeling in its “skin.”<br /><br />Designing a robot version of a human hand is a huge challenge, as the human hand is “highly complex,” scientists said.<br /><br />More than 1,200 tests were carried out using the robotic hand, which uses “passive” movement of the wrists making the technology low-cost and energy-efficient.<br /><br />It was able to successfully grasp 11 of 14 objects.
