What is microhand?
Micro -ands are various configurations of devices that are connected at the end of the robotic arm. Mikrohand usually has attributes similar to the attributes of the human hand. This means that microhand is designed to grasp and hold objects with sufficient efficiency for managing simplistic projects.
Sometimes it is referred to as the class of the robotic end effector, the main function of the microhane is to perform simple tasks that are necessary but could be performed in an automated environment. This helps to release human work for tasks that require greater concentration or complicated handling of a substance or object. Many versions of the microhand have three to five units of robotic fingers that help to grip and hold the object, as the robot shifts the object to the position for a given task, such as parts assemblies or pouring compounds into the container.
microhand monitors the same general formula used for decades with robotic weapons used in the mass industry as part of Zadkembly process. The difference with microhand is that the device is small, usually in the range of one millimeter. This makes microhand ideal for use in the laboratory. There is also some interest in the use of microhand technology in medical situations that require invasive surgery.
One of the variations of the microhand configuration includes an optical fiber system that acts as a light source for manipulating the microhand numbers. This particular application is one that attracts great interest in the medical area. There is a possibility of using what is known as the eye system to make a small cut and insert the microhand into the body. Using a visual connection, the doctor could see the inner part of the body and use the microhand to perform simple procedures.
MICROHANDUTINAES technology development. Currently, microhane capabilities are somewhat limited. However, there are attempts to improve dexterity RObotic units and there is the potential that the extensive use of microhane in many different professions will be common in the next decade.
