New Chinese robot hand reaches 3.5 times further than human capabilities
China has introduced a robotic prototype capable of exceeding human hand movements, with the ability to extend and retract 3.5 times the distance of a human hand. Known as BioflexBot, this device utilizes a combination of a coiled spring, a flexible exterior, and compressed air to achieve precise motion. It is designed to pinch, twist, hook, and hold items, making it useful for work in labs and tight spaces.
