Abstract

This project considers the optimization of the drive system, through the synthesis of a new concept of connection for the phalanxes, handles (tendões) and engines, of a robotic hand. This new concept will take in consideration non linearity of the behavior of the passage covered for the handles that carry through the transmission of the movement.
