Controllable Stiffness

A metal endoskeleton is embedded in each soft finger. When engaged, the endoskeleton increases the stiffness and reinforces the load bearing capabilities of the finger while bent.

Customizable Design

The fingers are fabricated with 3D printing method instead of the traditional silicone moulding method, which makes it easier and less costly to customize the finger design.

A suction cup is embedded in the palmar side of each gripper, that allows it to operate in three ways - 

1) by suction only

2) by finger gripping only 

3) simultaneous suction and finger gripping for added stability.

Dual operation mode

Embedded with a suction cup in the center, VG-2 allows for dual modes of operation – by gripping and/or by suction
