## Resource

This is one of the hardest problems in robotics: hands. PSYONIC is solving it by using human data, capturing touch, grip, and dexterity, and transferring it to robots. Alex Wolf Torres, Associate Editor, DROIDS, spoke with Dr. Aadeel Akhtar and Dale DiMassi from PSYONIC at NVIDIA GTC. Dale is a bionic hand user himself. As a user of the bionic hand, DiMassi discussed the device's capabilities. #robotics #physicalAI #bionics #NVIDIAGTC
