UK teen student builds robot hand that performs equivalent to research models
SMRTR summary
A 16-year-old Bristol student named Jared Lepora built a robotic hand entirely from Lego pieces that performs nearly as well as professional research models. The Educational SoftHand-A uses standard Lego MINDSTORMS components to mimic human hand motion, achieving 90 percent of a professional model's gripping force through a tendon-driven system. The completely reproducible design makes advanced soft-robotics concepts accessible to students using only household tools and educational robotics kits.
