00:00We can grasp on both sides right with the finger

00:30if the fingers are all potentially thumbs or some anindis then you can have many pairs so that

00:36allows you also to grab things with only those two fingers for instance. We went one step further

00:41by detaching the hand so that we could show that once fingers can do so many things they can also

00:47become legs. On hand we can only perform a limited number of tasks due to the

00:59structure, the constraint, the limitation of our hands. So what if we can release those

01:06constraints and make the robotic hand to go beyond the functionality of human hand even

01:12more dexterous? I think that's the whole idea behind our design and the problem we wanted to address.
