About

About Amazing Hand

Pollen Robotics uses a parallel linkage architecture to obtain eight driven axes from a compact mechanism weighing about 400 grams. The fingers can form expressive poses and perform experimental grasps while keeping the actuator and transmission layout accessible to builders. The design is intended to mount on Reachy 2 or be adapted to another compatible arm.

Mechanical models, circuit files, firmware and control software are published for fabrication and modification. That documentation lets laboratories reproduce parts, alter finger geometry and repair assemblies without relying on a closed supply chain. The reference bill of materials targets less than 200 dollars, positioning the project as an accessible platform for dexterity experiments and robotics education.
