Hand/262/ThankYou
v1 v2 1 1 = Thank you = 2 2 3 Thank you for choosing the !BarrettHand™ Grasper™. The !BarrettHand™ is designed to overcome the inflexibility of conventional grippers with microprocessor-enabled dexterity while maintaining durability, compactness, and ease of use. The !BarrettHand™ is a multi-fingered Grasper™ with the dexterity to secure target objects of different sizes, shapes, and orientations. Rather than rely on pinching gripper friction or permanent gripper-jaw shape customization the !BarrettHand™ gently envelops the object, securely locking its joints until commanded to release.3 Thank you for choosing the !BarrettHand™ BH8-262 Grasper™.

Even with its low, 1.2-kg, weight and compact form, it is totally self-contained. Communication with the !BarrettHand™ offers a couple of connectivity options. The BH8-280 hand has high-speed CAN connectivity with Barrett’s universal Puck controllers embedded in the hand. The BH8-262 model and earlier hands useindustry-standard serial communications, which has been the common denominator of communications, for guaranteed universal compatibility. The !BarrettHand™ features a common cross-platform compatible API and provides powerful on-board motion control through Barrett’s open Grasper Control Language (GCL) facilitating supervisory control.5 System integration with any robotic arm is fast and simple.

Its low mass and short base-to-grasp-center distance minimize joint loading on the host robot and reduce extraneous arm movements during object reorientation. The custom control-electronics package is contained entirely within the palm shell, reducing electrical wiring to a single cable carrying all communications and motor power.
