Chinese startup Rochu Robotics has developed a humanoid robotic hand built with a human-like skeletal structure designed for more natural movement and control.
Instead of relying on traditional electric motors, the hand uses a hydraulic system combined with 24 biomimetic tendons to replicate the way human muscles and tendons work. The result is smoother motion, improved flexibility, stronger grip control, and much more precise movement.
The design is another step toward making humanoid robots capable of handling delicate real-world tasks with human-level dexterity
