A lightweight glove that mimics your movements for ultimate control

We’ve merged the Dexterous Hand with our lightweight Shadow Glove, creating a new control and automation solution for robotic manipulation and grasping.

Combining intuitive control with unparalleled freedom of movement, the robot Hand accurately mimics your movements achieving complex tasks with precision.
Shadow Glove will fit any size of a Hand thanks to it's open design

uses and benefits

Minimal latency allows you to achieve complex manipulation and grasping trajectories with ease

Minimalist, lightweight glove and universal sizing provides uninhibited control

Open frame design allows for the addition of custom feedback mechanisms
