Abstract

Humanoid robot hands are expected to replace human hands in the dexterous manipulation of objects. This paper presents a review of humanoid robot hand research and development. Humanoid hands are also applied to multifingered haptic interfaces, hand rehabilitation support systems, sEMG prosthetic hands, telepalpation systems, etc. The developed application systems in our group are briefly introduced.

Side-faced multi-fingered haptic interface, SF-HIRO
