Mechanical hand
July 8, 2014
from German Bejarano
In this project the development of a mechanical hand with the basic objective to conclude a working prototype is proposed, which involves meeting with the mechanical design and physical construction of the hand.
The mechanism of the mechanical hand operated from the handle of the rod and rotated clockwise. The crank operates the central gear pinion mechanism that moves the crank shaft which transmits movement to each finger. This is transmitted from the little finger to the index finger. A connecting rod operates a lever mechanism to move the thumb.
This is not a robot in the strictest sense, although it is an excellent experiment to learn some anatomy and bio-inspired robotic designs.
The mechanical hand is an easy project to do with some paint or other materials can go quite professional and economical.

How the mechanics of the fingertip impact the tactile and gripping function of the hand
Abstract
In the recent years there have been a number of new studies pertaining to the detailed mechanics of the human fingertip, which will be surveyed. It is believed that the rather counterintuitive mechanical and tribological properties of this organ play a major role in the hand extremities' prehensile, sensory, and behavioral capabilities. Several examples will be described
in this seminar.
Speaker Biography
Vincent Hayward (Dr.-Ing., 1981 Univ. de Paris XI) was Postoctoral Fellow then Visiting Assistant Professor (1982) at Purdue University, and joined CNRS, France, as Charg? de Recherches in 1983. In 1987, he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at McGill University as assistant, associate and then full professor (2006). He was the Director of the McGill Center for Intelligent Machines from 2001 to 2004. Hayward is interested in haptic device design and applications, perception, and robotics. Hayward co-founded spin-off companies and received several best paper and research awards. He is on editorial board of the ACM Transaction on Applied Perception and of the IEEE Transactions on Haptics and is a Fellow of the IEEE. As of 2008, he holds the "Chaire internationale d'haptique" at the Universit? Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France and is Professeur des Universit?s since 2011.

Robotic Hand controlled by a glove with Flexo sensors
November 22, 2013
This robotic hand is controlled by a glove with flexo sensors. As it can be seen in the video arduino was used. The flexo sensors were received by an Arduino then sent to a mac computer. Then the computer sends the information to another Arduino in charge of controlling the robotic hand.
