FlexHand V1
FlexHand V1 is a soft robotic hand from LX Robotics Limited, a start-up based in the Hong Kong Science Park. Instead of rigid joints and motors inside the fingers, the design relies on a compliant lattice structure that is flexed by cables from a compact tendon actuation unit, letting the hand conform to whatever it grasps.

FlexHand V1 is a soft robotic hand from LX Robotics Limited, a start-up based in the Hong Kong Science Park. Instead of rigid joints and motors inside the fingers, the design relies on a compliant lattice structure that is flexed by cables from a compact tendon actuation unit, letting the hand conform to whatever it grasps.
The company positions it as a platform for embodied-AI research, for teaching and for prosthetic work. The project is at prototype stage, and the only public description is the science park's directory entry, which carries no figures: the maker does not publish finger count, degrees of freedom, weight, load, grip force, sensing or communication interfaces, and there is no datasheet or shop.
The catalog offers comparable compliant designs such as BionicSoftHand 2.0 and qb SoftHand2 Research for those weighing up soft grippers. Pricing is on request directly from the company.
