The neck, with 2 DOF, enables natural, human-like movements, enhancing its ability to perform tasks requiring precise head positioning. The robot’s upper limbs feature advanced robotic arms with 7 DOF each, paired with the ROBOTERA XHAND1—a five-fingered, dexterous hand equipped with 12 active DOF and full direct drive. This setup allows ROBOTERA STAR1 to carry out complex and highly accurate operations with ease.
