DLR-HIT Hand II
The DLR HIT Hand II from HIT (Harbin Institute of technology) and DLR Institut for Robotics and Mechatronic is further stage of the DLR HIT Hand I.In contrast to the DLR HIT Hand I the new DLR HIT Hand II has five modular fingers with four joint and three active degrees of freedoms and is still lighter and smaller.
Hands and grippers - DLR
DLR Hand I (1998) The DLR Hand I was the immediate predecessor of the DLR Hand II. Each finger shows up a 2-dof cardanic base joint realized by special designed linear actuators (artificial muscles) and a third actuator of this type integrated into the bottom finger link, thus, actuating the second link actively and, by elaborate coupling via a spring, the third link passively.
LUNA - DLR
In this way, LUNA enables the development and testing of new tools and devices, as well as the simulation of new operating concepts in an analogue lunar environment, and will thus support future manned lunar missions in their preparation.
Data access and products - DLR
The terms for TerraSAR-X data utilisation depend on the envisaged application. The base level products comprise simple image products, where scanning mode, polarization and geometric projection can be specified by the customer according to their needs. Orders can be placed for items from the current catalogue as well as for ...
