About mimic hand M1
mimic hand M1 is a tendon-driven anthropomorphic hand with 15 active degrees of freedom and backdrivable bidirectional actuation. Its morphology is aligned with the human hand to support direct transfer from wearable demonstrations and large-scale human-action datasets.
Fingertip tactile sensing, proprioception and synchronised global-shutter cameras provide contact and scene information for learned manipulation. mimic robotics combines the hand with wearable data collection, video pretraining and post-training methods for industrial policies requiring precision, power and long operating periods.
