About

About RH56DFX

RH56DFX uses the same six-active-degree, 12-joint five-finger architecture as RH56BFX while increasing published fingertip force. Inspire offers versions with or without a two-axis wrist; the hand-only configuration weighs 540 g and the wrist version 650 g.

The current product page specifies 15 N thumb force, 10 N force at each finger, 0.5 N force resolution and ±0.2 mm repeatability. The RS485-controlled hand operates from 12–48 V, while the optional wrist provides ±27° yaw, ±22° pitch and a 2 Nm load excluding the hand.

  • DITTO-X actuated exoskeleton

    Research Experiment - Controlled By - Physical - Inspire RH56DFX is physically used to lift a soft toy with a six-actuator hand controlled through DITTO-X. This is an external laboratory study, not manufacturer authorship or a commercial deployment.

Research

  • Forward and Reverse Teleoperation for Dexterous Manipulation and Human Intervention

    2026-09-30 - Research Publication - An actuated exoskeleton renders force and vibrotactile feedback during forward teleoperation. Reverse teleoperation aligns the operator’s hand with the policy-controlled robot before takeover. The described DITTO-Human collection spans six tasks, three hands and more than 16 hours; public downloads remain pending.
