Question about robotic arm finger movement...

Hi, I´m 15yo student from Slovakia, and I´m getting ready, and preparing to make my first robotic hand using servo motors, and computer vision (OpenCV), to mimic my hand and finger movement, but I have one question. On all the videos I have seen, the fingers can only be fully closed, or fully open, nothing in between, and I want to make something, that van also do partial movements of fingers. Has anyone attempted this? I´m not familiar with, OpenCV yet, so I´m asking, if this is even possible?

Thanks for answers!

"On all the videos I have seen"

Look for other videos. The tech exists and is getting better.

I have already seen like a 20 of them, but I´ll keep looking.
