Thank you for checking out GetRobo. I too have corrected my article. Neither Robonaut nor Robonaut2 seem to be using the Shadow hand. The initial article pointed out there is a photo of a Shadow hand on the Robotics Caucus website http://www.roboticscaucus.org/default.asp and that when you click the link, it leads to the Robonaut site. So I thought that the Robonaut hand may be Shadow’s. But when I confirmed with Shadow, they said it was not and that the Robonaut team seems to use it as a tool for dexterity and manipulation experiments. Thanks for letting me clear that out!

Ah, ok. Thank you for that.

We’re as interested as anyone in what they’ve done in Robonaut2…

Cheers, Rich.
