This project presents a groundbreaking prototype of a robotic hand developed by Eduardo Torres-Jara at MIT's CSAIL. It focuses on sensor-based touch sensing rather than traditional model-based approaches, allowing for real contact with the environment. Key features include high spatial resolution force sensing at the fingertips and joints, mechanical compliance, and shock resistance. The hand utilizes an array of Force Sensing Resistors (FSR) to detect pressures accurately. Controlled by DSP, this technology enhances robotic interaction while ensuring safety and adaptability in dynamic settings.
