Gripper

This page introduces the gripper, one core device of MagiClaw. It provides a physical operation interface with real-time force feedback and multimodal data. Thanks to the high-precision hollow shaft servo motor, force feedback can be applied when pulling the trigger to close beams. Two Metafingers are installed on the beams, capturing shape and force during interaction.

There are two types of the gripper, including in-hand and on-robot types. The in-hand gripper is handled by users for human data streaming, while the on-robot one is mounted at the end of robots for manipulation.
