HUMANOID ROBOTICS HAND ACTUATED BY AIR MUSCLES

摘要

A humanoid forearm and hand configuration has a hand conformation such as to be capable of mimicking substantially all of the movements of the human hand, the several component parts of the hand and the wrist-simulating joint coupling the hand to the radius-seeking joint of the forearm being angularly movable with respect to one another each by separate tendon means connected to respective ones of a large number of tightly packed space-seeking jostling air muscles clustered around a radius-simulating shaft.
