qb SoftHand2 Research Context

Market context

Compliant research hand with two synergies and two motors for adaptive grasping and in-hand manipulation.

• Target environment: Research robotics, collaborative robots and safe-contact manipulation
• Workflow context: Adaptive grasping, in-hand manipulation, pick-and-place research and soft end-effector integration
• Customer context: Labs and integrators that prefer compliant grasping over a rigid finger architecture.
• Deployment model: Commercial product page with research positioning.
• Commercial maturity: Commercial/research product page; system package should be verified with qbrobotics.
• Adoption constraints: Best fit depends on grasp requirements, payload, control needs and whether passive compliance is desirable.
• Adjacent products: qb SoftHand Research, qb SoftHand Industry, IH2 Azzurra, SCHUNK SVH, RealHand L6
