Wow..German Researcher Successfully Raft Arm Terminator.

OBERPFAFFENHOFEN, GERMANY -
The hand that you see these robots
are made in Germany, the creation
of a researcher at the Institute of
Robotics and Mechatronics. In
building the first part of the
Terminator, the researchers focused
on the robustness and they look
promising to achieve success.

But that does not mean the utility
function is exchanged with the
toughness. When you see the video
- which you can click the link below
- the mechanical hand that looks
capable of doing amazing range of
movement.

The fingers are controlled by 38
tendons, each driven by respective
motors located at the front of the
arm. Two tendons work for each
joint.

When the motor turns in the same
manner, the joints were moved.
When they move into different
directions, sendipun become stiff.
The situation was allowed to harden
hand to catch the ball, but loose
enough to perform complicated
work.

During testing, the researchers
change themselves into a baseball
pitcher and baseball with the rod
wallop equal to the speed of bullets.
Results. No one, aka the robot's
hand is not injured at all.

The hand is not merely resistant to
blows, but also can handle the
pressure up to 30 Newtons received
his fingers, so he has a lot of
possibilities, began to massage that
stimulates until the strangulation
death.

He was also able to move quickly.
The joints can rotate at 500 degrees
per second. Not to stop there, the
head of the team 'robotic arm' Mark
Grebenstein, said that they planned
to assemble a torso (upper chest)
with two arms. The reason?
According to an interview with IEEE
Spectrum, Grebenstein said, "you
can not learn without experiment."
Thus, this experiment is the process
of their learning.

Oh one more, if you do not like or
fear to be locked with a finger clamp
and then hit with metal bars, maybe
you should not see the video below.
