The ArtiXon Hand is a highly biomimetic five-finger dexterous hand developed by X Square Robot (自变量机器人). Designed for precise manipulation and adaptive grasping in humanoid robots, it offers an advantage over traditional three-finger grippers thanks to superior in-hand manipulation.
The hand provides 20 degrees of freedom (DOF) and 15 actuators, performs 31 fine actions (including pinch, grip, grasp and twist) with a response time under 1 second. It is equipped with tactile sensors and force feedback, enabling adaptive grasping.
The component is used as an end effector on X Square Robot’s robots and is intended for dexterity-demanding tasks such as assembly and precise object manipulation.

Force-controlled dexterous robotic hand · serves as: Grasping, Manipulation, End effector, Tactile sensor.
Which group ArtiXon Hand belongs to and how it is built
A subcategory encompassing robotic hands with multiple degrees of freedom, designed to perform complex grasping, regrasping, manipulation, and object interaction tasks. Unlike simple grippers, dexterous hands enable more advanced finger coordination and a broader variety of grasp types.
Force-controlled dexterous robotic hand components are advanced manipulator end-effectors equipped with force, torque, or contact sensing, designed for safe and precise object handling. They are used in humanoid robots, research platforms, and tasks requiring delicate or adaptive grasping.
Five-fingered robotic hands designed for a wide range of grasps and more anthropomorphic manipulation, commonly used in humanoid robots and manipulation research.
