    Boston Dynamics unveils new-generation dexterous hands for the Atlas humanoid robot

    Boston Dynamics has released a new generation of dexterous hands for the Atlas humanoid robot, moving from 7 degrees of freedom in the previous generation to 13 degrees of freedom across four fingers, using a single actuator type for direct drive and full encapsulation. The new design is aimed at manipulation rather than simple grasping: a four-DOF opposable thumb supports fingertip sliding, pinching, three-finger grasping, and gripping tools such as drills and welding torches, while the strength still allows it to carry a mini-fridge payload of 100lb+, and it supports high-fidelity simulation for sim-to-real reinforcement learning.

    Boston Dynamics unveils newly designed hand for Atlas robot, increasing degrees of freedom from 7 to 13

    Boston Dynamics has released a redesigned hand for the Atlas robot, increasing degrees of freedom from 7 to 13 and adding finger splay, enabling it to grip tools such as trigger-operated drills and welding guns. The design abandons humanlike appearance (dropping the pinky finger) and uses direct-drive actuators embedded in the joints, with no tendon cables and actuator packs that can be replaced as a whole, balancing simulability, mass producibility, and low-cost repair. Alberto Rodriguez said the team is studying the design adjustments needed to produce 100,000 hands per year and plans to use reinforcement learning to explore beyond-human motions such as finger splay.

    Boston Dynamics unveils dexterous hand for next-gen Atlas robot: 13-DOF four-finger design

    Boston Dynamics has unveiled a dexterous hand for its next-generation Atlas humanoid robot, increasing from GR2's 7 degrees of freedom to 13, using a four-finger design with a 4-DOF opposable thumb, direct drive, and only a single actuator type. The design drops the pinky finger to reduce cost and complexity, is equipped with fingertip and palm pressure tactile sensors, supports pinch grasping, three-finger grasping, and pressing tool triggers, and was optimized for high-fidelity simulation for sim-to-real transfer and reinforcement learning, with preliminary sim-to-real results on dynamic tasks already available.

    Why it matters: The original article details the degrees of freedom, actuation, and simulation design tradeoffs of the next-generation Atlas dexterous hand, letting readers understand how the hand design serves reinforcement learning and real-world work.

    Case Study | Stial's AI Flexible Grinding Robot Targets Weld Seam Grinding Pain Points in Welded Boxes

    Stial has launched an AI flexible grinding solution for grinding weld seams on welded boxes, achieving uniform removal of weld seams, smooth transitions between welds and base material, and no damage to thin-walled base material. The solution uses the self-developed SeeV vision system to locate weld seams, and NextBrain™ AI Mushroom Cloud computing to calculate grinding allowance and generate grinding paths. After digital twin simulation verification, a six-axis robot works with the PolishX flexible force control system to execute the grinding, with force control accuracy of ±0.5%FS and output force as low as 4N, suitable for energy storage, electrical, new energy battery housings, and other multi-category box scenarios.
