Seed Robotics RH8D

Underactuated robotic hand with integrated sensing and durability features.

Overview

The RH8D combines 19 degrees of freedom with 8 internal smart actuators for a balance of fine control and object conformation. It includes integrated position, speed, current, and temperature feedback per joint, plus a palm distance sensor. Durability is enhanced by magnetically detachable fingers and Dyneema tendons.
