Robotic Hand

In the Fall semester of 2024 I assisted the development of a 4-finger robotic system through design and prototyping of hardware for 3-degree-of-freedom robot fingers comprising the robot hand.

Skills developed:

  • System and component design

  • Rapid prototyping

  • Electro-mechanical integration

Software utilized:

  • SolidWorks (CAD)

Tools put to use:

  • 3D-Printers

I assisted in designing hardware for a robotic hand, integrating motors, sensors, electronics and a camera with structural members of the robot. The robotic hand featured four fingers operating at three degrees of freedom each, and hardware design required paying close attention to clearances between moving components.
