RUKA-v2 Capabilities

Capability

open-source tendon-driven robotic hand

Source-backed capabilities

  • Capability areas: Robotic grasping, Dexterous manipulation
  • Workflows: End-effector manipulation
  • Operating environments: Robot-learning labs, teleoperation research and humanoid manipulation research
  • Target markets: Researchers who care about reproducible hand design and human-demonstration transfer.
  • Deployment model: Research project hand for open robotics manipulation experiments rather than a mass-market commercial product.
  • Dexterous manipulation - Research demonstration - 2026-03-27 - NYU researchers report RUKA-v2 across 13 single-arm and bimanual teleoperation tasks and three autonomous manipulation policies, with measured completion-time and success-rate gains over RUKA. - source: ruka-hand-v2.github.io
