Summary

PUDU DH11 is Pudu Robotics 11-degree-of-freedom five-finger dexterous hand. It includes tactile sensing areas and is used as an end effector for humanoid robots that need human-like grasping and object interaction.

Overview

PUDU DH11 is Pudu Robotics 11-degree-of-freedom five-finger dexterous hand. It includes tactile sensing areas and is used as an end effector for humanoid robots that need human-like grasping and object interaction.

Market context

PUDU DH11 is Pudu Robotics' 11-DoF five-finger dexterous hand for semi-humanoid and humanoid robots.

• Target environment: Humanoid platforms, service robots, manipulation labs and robot arms needing compact human-like end-effectors.
• Workflow context: Dexterous grasping, tactile interaction, object handling, twisting, pulling, pushing and pressing tasks.
• Customer context: Robot builders, Pudu X-Lab teams, humanoid integrators and researchers comparing dexterous hand options.
• Deployment model: Commercially presented manipulation subsystem in Pudu's embodied-AI robot line.
• Commercial maturity: Public product with official specifications and positioning around tactile sensing and cable-driven structure.
• Adoption constraints: Adoption depends on force output, tactile reliability, finger durability, control interface, size and integration with target robots.
• Market position: Service-robot OEM moving into reusable humanoid manipulation hardware for its own and potentially adjacent robot systems.
• Adjacent products: Linker Hand L20, AGILINK OmniHand, DexRobot DexHand021 Pro, Inspire RH56DFX
