• Due to the more research and development in the field of soft materials, there is a shift towards
the development of the soft robots which can be used within the human environments.
• Although some of the existed hybrid manipulators consist of rigid and soft material, only the
joints are made of soft materials. Another drawback of the available hybrid grippers is an
complicated design and high development cost due to which it is not adequately explored.

Materials and Methods
Finger design of the proposed robotic hand
Each finger consists of three parts as the backbone of the proposed gripper connected by preloaded
springs. The three parts of the proposed robotic hand resemble the three phalanges of the human finger
such as MCP to PIP, PIP to DIP, and Distal phalange.
