A spherical wrist is built into the RH8D, the adult-size hand from Seed Robotics in Lisbon, and counts toward its nineteen degrees of freedom, all produced by just eight smart actuators through under-actuation. Each actuator carries a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 processor with a co-processor and reports position, speed, current and temperature.
The hand weighs 620 g and holds 2.5 kg in a vertical pull or 1 kg freely in space. A time-of-flight distance sensor sits in the palm; capacitive pads and three-axis FTS-1 or FTS-3 tactile sensors with 1 mN resolution are optional, so the standard hand has no tactile sensing.
Supply voltage ranges from 9 to 24 V. Communication uses RS-485 or TTL with the Dynamixel protocol 1.0 and 2.0, plus USB and optional Bluetooth; ROS packages, PyPot support and a URDF model are provided. Price on request, and the maker does not state the hand's length. Seed Robotics was founded in 2015 and has been based in Lisbon since 2020.
The child-size RH6D is the smaller sibling; for a fully actuated hand of similar weight see XHAND1 Lite.
