YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAddams Family’s Thing went robotic. 🖐️🤖
Swiss researchers have created a hand that can detach from a robotic arm and crawl off to grab things.
Typically, robotic arms are fixed to keep them stable, which limits their reach. But this new hand, developed at EPFL's Learning Algorithms and Systems Laboratory (LASA), has a unique design that lets it act independently. Its fingers can bend both ways, allowing some to lift objects while others scuttle around like little legs.
