Why a robot's hand is harder to build than its brain
Original: ‘The physics of grasping’: Why a robot's hand can be harder to build than its brain
Engineers say one of robotics' toughest problems is not artificial intelligence but the physical act of grasping. A human hand's dexterity, touch sensitivity and ability to adjust grip in real time are extremely difficult to replicate mechanically, making manipulation a bigger hurdle than cognition in many robotics projects.
Why now: Ongoing advances in humanoid robots and AI have renewed focus on the unsolved challenge of dexterous robotic manipulation.
