Steel measuring tape is an interesting material, in that it's rigid enough to hold its shape when extended, but flexible enough that it gives way under pressure. Scientists have taken advantage of ...

It's a game a lot of us played as children -- and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would extend before bending. But to engineer, this game was an inspiration, ...

The actuation link has a small gearbox at it’s base to open and close the hand, and the hinge ... belt stretches between the finger tip and the base of the gripper, which can be tensioned ...

It's important that you have a proper grip to hit consistently solid shots. GOLF Top 100 Teacher Debbie Doniger shows us how.

The actuation link has a small gearbox at it’s base to open and close the hand, and the hinge ... belt stretches between the finger tip and the base of the gripper, which can be tensioned ...

The hand performs pressure detection and surface recognition using tactile matrices to accurately determine whether an object has been gripped. The robot gripper has 7 degrees of freedom (2 DOF for ...

Here are some effective ways to enhance grip strength: Hand exercises like grip squeezes, finger extensions can strengthen ...

That’s because the tape is both robust and flexible; can be stored in a small container when retracted; and can reach far when extended. After a series of trial-and-error experiments, the engineers ...
