A five-digit hand with 30 force-sensing resistors built in — six per digit. Most robot hands give you position and current; this one streams a touch map alongside them, which is what makes it useful for contact-rich policy learning rather than just pick-and-place.
Specifications
- 6 DoF driven by 6 BLDC motors, with torque, velocity and position control
- 30 force-sensing resistors (6 per digit) plus 6 encoder channels

Integration
Officially supported as a retargeting target by MANUS Core for glove-driven teleoperation. Knoxlabs handles mounting, bus wiring and the retargeting stack.
