Robotic Hand Achieves Human-Like Grasp Through Adaptive Compliance

Berlin, Germany (SPX) May 14, 2025
Researchers at EPFL's CREATE Lab have developed a robotic hand that can replicate human-like grasps without precise spatial data, using a principle known as compliance. As Kai Junge, a PhD student in the School of Engineering's Computational Robot Design and Fabrication (CREATE) Lab, explains, human hands grasp objects with minimal external guidance, thanks to the soft, compliant interactions at
