Dec 16, 2025 · Demonstration · MANUS · Data Infrastructure

A UC San Diego study demonstrated a hybrid grasp-initialization method for articulated-tool manipulation.

UC San Diego's articulated-tool study used MANUS Metagloves Pro to provide teleoperated initial grasps when a dexterous hand could not establish stable grasps autonomously.

  • Operators used MANUS Metagloves Pro to provide teleoperated starting grasps.
  • The intervention was used when the dexterous hand could not establish a stable grasp autonomously.

MANUS Meta supplies high-precision hand-tracking and haptic gloves for robotics, mocap, VR and research. Its robotics materials focus on teleoperation and humanoid training data, with Metagloves Pro and Metagloves Pro Haptic used for low-latency dexterous control.
