Agile Hand
The Agile Hand is a multi-sensory, anthropomorphic robotic hand from Agile Robots, featuring five identical modular fingers designed to mimic human hand joints, size, shape, and dexterity for delicate tasks in manufacturing, research, and humanoid applications. With 15-16 degrees of freedom, integrated actuators, torque/position sensors per joint, and active compliant control, it enables human-like movements, quick adaptation (360°/s velocity), and firm yet delicate grasping up to 10 N fingertip force, supported by real-time 1 kHz communication and ROS compatibility.
