Abstract :
An artificial 15 degrees of mobility direct drive hand, slightly bigger than a human hand, is presented. Advantages and limitations of a direct drive hand are given. The authors introduce the design of their hand and present a model for control of the hand. Finally the authors describe their experiments with the hand. The direct drive hand dynamics have been simulated and the control algorithm has been tested on the model
