Tatum Robotics demonstrates tactile-signing hand prototype
Tatum Robotics demonstrated a 3D-printed robotic hand that tactilely fingerspells American Sign Language for DeafBlind users while developing a compliant arm for more complex signing.
Evidence notes
- The 3D-printed prototype spells words with American Sign Language so a user can read its movements through tactile fingerspelling.
- Tatum Robotics said it had conducted preliminary validation with DeafBlind users and was continuing community-led testing and iteration.
- The team was developing a compliant robotic arm alongside the hand to support more complex words, phrases and tactile sign-language systems.
