Overview

The DG-5F-S is a compact humanoid robotic hand built for integration with humanoid and collaborative robot platforms, dexterous manipulation research, and teleoperation. Direct Drive actuation eliminates backlash and delivers high positional accuracy at 500Hz control frequency. Available in two configurations — select your variant above.

Configurations

20 DoF — Full Hand
4 DoF per finger across all five fingers. Full independent joint control. Pinching payload 1 kg / 2 kg max. Enveloping payload 7 kg / 12 kg max. Weight: 880g. Best for dexterous manipulation, in-hand reorientation, and maximum task versatility.

15 DoF — Compact
3 DoF per finger across all five fingers. The 15 DoF version has a different fingertip shape — fingertips are slightly inclined toward the palm, which may limit grasping of smaller objects. Pinching payload 0.8 kg / 1.6 kg max. Enveloping payload 5.6 kg / 9.6 kg max. Weight: 780g. Best for platforms with wrist payload, space, or compute constraints.

Key Features
  • Direct Drive Actuation — No gearbox. Minimal backlash, high positional accuracy, intuitive force control.
  • Lightweight — 880g (20 DoF) / 780g (15 DoF). Human hand scale. Minimal added wrist-load on humanoid and collaborative robot arms.
  • 500Hz Control Frequency — High responsiveness for dynamic manipulation and teleoperation tasks.
  • Independent Joint Control — Each joint independently actuated. No coupled or underactuated fingers (20 DoF variant).
  • Built-In Grasp Algorithms — On-board algorithms for robust object handling across diverse shapes and materials.
  • Two Configurations, Different Fingertip Design — The 15 DoF variant has a different fingertip shape and reduced joint count. Payloads, fingertip force, and grasping characteristics differ between variants. See configuration details above.
  • GitHub SDK — Open-source SDK at github.com/tesollodelto for custom software integration.
