The SOPHT: Soft Prosthetic Hand project consists of a soft-layered, cable-actuated robotic hand combined with a motored-controlled arm that is anatomically proportional and accurately represents the dexterity of human capabilities. Arm functionality is demonstrated via various arm gestures to display accurate range of motion and degrees of freedom compared to a human arm. An external, soft layer is applied to cover the arm to improve aesthetics. Following the completion of the arm, the intention is to integrate the product with a lower body humanoid robot project, HURON, to produce a complete humanoid robot.
