Abstract

The DLR-HIT II hand is a highly flexible and dexterous robot capable of performing complex grasping and manipulation tasks. This study presents a comprehensive simulation of the artificial hand using both MATLAB’s Simscape Multibody toolbox and CoppeliaSim (formerly known as V-REP). The simulation m...
