The Robot Hand from Squse features movable polycarbonate “bones” that are covered with a very realistic looking fleshtone silicon rubber. Kyoto-based Squse has developed the so-called Robot Hand H-Type [JP], a creepily realistic (but very cool) robotic hand.
This robotic limb is powered by 22 actuators with 16 joints, giving it a certain degree of realism in its movements.It weighs 340g and can lift up and move objects weighing up to 1.5kg. One can easily mistaken it for a real one.
The Robot Hand H-Type will be used mainly for industrial applications. Squse says " Two auto makers & another two companies from the food industry already showed interest in our product " . It includes three item set (hand, arm and image-processing system) which costs a whopping $94,000.
