Description

ZWHAND blends advanced drive modules, tactile sensing, and compact integration to bring lifelike dexterity to robotic systems. It packs many micro motors and sensors into a streamlined form that still moves fluidly. Because the design focuses on tight coordination between components, the hand reacts quickly to touch and position changes. It supports nuanced interactions that feel closer to human movement than many traditional end-effectors.
