Abstract

A device forming a robotic hand, including a base forming a hand palm, at least two articulated structures each forming a robotic finger, each articulated structure being connected to the base by at least one articulation, at least one drive mechanism for each articulation, at least one actuator arranged to actuate the at least one drive mechanism by means of at least one flexible drive link connecting and driving the at least one drive mechanism, structure for measuring the pivoting of the at least one actuator and one or more of the articulations, a glove covering the base and the at least two articulated structures, the glove being closed so as to form, inside the glove, a volume filled with oil between the wall of the glove and the base and the at least two articulated structures. Robotic hands used in aquatic environments at great depths are also disclosed.
