Abstract :
Modeling and simulation of multi-fingered robot hand (MFRH) is increasingly gaining importance amongst researchers for industrial and medical applications. In this paper, a MFRH with five fingers is modeled and simulated for grasping task. This was done using a CAD tool known as Solidworks, and an analytical tool known as SimMechanics of MATLAB. The simulation results show that the improved performance of grasping functions for MFRH.
