I have a degree in robotics, so I feel like I have a smidge of authority when I say that your work, attention to detail and explanations are just perfect. You should feel immensely proud of what you achieved with this project, and I hope it brings you the attention and funding your talented self deserves.

I found your channel years ago when working on a similar hand intended as a proof of concept for a prosthetic. It was very helpful at the time to use as inspiration and allowed me to get through some difficult problems with that project. It is very nice to see your hand finally open to the world, I think you did such and amazing job and you are a very big inspiration, not only for the incredible results but for the determination you show to work on it. I hope there is much more to come.

I'd Say that the wrist and thumb movements are the most accurate because most people can't usually figure out the thumb and the wrist is usually made the point of rotation of the hand instead of the bend, basically removing a lot of the functionality, The rotation comes from about a 3rd or half of the forearm. Good Job 👍

Amazing work! Your work is a huge inspiration and omg! As an engineer and a blender user myself, I kinda understand the work that went into those blender exploded view animations, the time it takes to deal with stupid CAD to STLs, origin points, etc… and i can only imagine the shear number of revisions, failures, decisions, roadblocks… just, hands down, one of the most impressive projects by an individual creator!

Still very fun and inspiring to watch you do it, and I am sure elements of what I learned from it will help solve issues with my own projects by expanding my knowledge. Thank you for sharing this with us.

My only immediate suggestions would be if the servos don't have enough torque to cause damage then use a script to drive them to end travel and use the pot readback to calibrate the end positions, if the servos do have enough torque to cause damage then you'd either need to run them very slowly or the better solution would be to have current sensors on the servo to identify when it hits end travel before damage occurs. I'm not sure if you're already tapping into the pot readbacks but it's a good idea to do so anyway as you can use that to automatically detect some faults, and it's a good practice to recalibrate occasionally to account for slip and wear. Im not sure if it's necessary but I've seen designs where the tendons had slack lines bridged with springs to create a bit of give in the joints for gripping delicate objects, rather than that you could also use a spring gear like assembly between the servo and the pully head (i.e. there would be a spring and hardstop between the servo and pully to allow some give if not at the end of the travel).

Have you considered adding an option for patterns where you keep the hand on a constant livestream so that coders can test their written arduino code on it and see the results? That way, people who have a CS background can get involved in the project without having to go through the insane amount of construction.

8:17 In Blender, there are different quaternion and Euler presets you can select when rotating parts for animations. Press the N key, or bring up your side bar. In the Transform sub panel, under rotation there should be a drop down menu. This should adjust and help your Blender animations.

It’s probably the most articulated animatronic version of a human hand I’ve seen. It would be cool to test it to its limits in terms of speed and weight bearing to try to enhance it. (Edited for spelling)

Going that far, you might as well just make embedded servos. They’re just geared motors with a limit switch in a case. Remove the case and just model the motor and switch holders into the forearm. Making the 3d printing the servo casings should save space and reduce weight. I would replace the pots with Hall effect sensors.

i think the next part is creating syth muscles with Thermostatic wires and a electircally tempered electrolite gell that can be charged on and off to create conduction causing the wires to change shape form the heat. if the right metals are used and span thin so they "rotate and alter shap to create a contraction rotaition motion maybe then we will have progress and with time R&D maybe 3D printing the fibers and gell close and narrow making smaller low watage versions that could fun their own motor

@TheSmokingMustache 10 ай бұрын
The complexity isn't likely to get too much better until way stronger micro servo motors are made, but the human hand and wrist are some of the most complex parts of the human body mechanically speaking. This design could likely have near to or normal human strength if the right materials are used, the pulley system he has gives the ability to greatly adjust the strength without increasing the strain on the motors so much they burn out. I'm very happy to see someone working towards building a much more usable and accurate prosthetic though =D

This is really cool! Very impressive engineering you've done here. Someday, I'd like to make a similar project and pair it with a robotic arm. I'm working on the arm now. Approximately how much does the assembly weigh? Also, if you need some assistance with the kinematics/control of the hand, I'd love to help. I haven't done it for hands before, but I'm experienced in robot kinematics and is a subject I've been interested in for a while.

Halfway through, I just decided to cut my own hand, place it on the table, hook up a 220v directly to it and watch it animate. -JK obv. Great video though. But I think you are way overthinking this process. You could reduce the clunkiness and modularity of it by 50% You can print out the skeleton mechanics, use micro servos (they make heavy duty ones, depending on the weight you are working with) and then use translucent silicone to form the actual hand. Again, great video for someone learning. Good job!

I would like to ask, but don't really expect an answer. I know that this whole project is an attempt to bring this as close to a biomimetic hand and wrist as possible, and to look as close to human as mechanically possible with our current tech capabilities. What are your thoughts on making something that is less human, still biomimetic, but more alien, such as the right arm of the orokin from Warframe?
