Description

The Phoenix 3.2 robotic hand gives humanoid robots a remarkably life-like sense of touch and manipulation. Sanctuary designs this hand to work closely with its Phoenix humanoid robot family, aiming to match the broad range of tasks that humans perform with their hands. Because the hand includes tactile sensors and rich feedback, it lets robots adjust grip and motion in real time. The result is a system that can handle both delicate objects and everyday tools with reliable performance.
