There’s little reason for researchers to limit themselves to human functionality, as there is a world of biological inspiration to draw from.
Akershus, Festo a mis au point un préhenseur dont le principe de préhension est directement inspiré de la langue du caméléon.

The piston moves upwards by means of a spring support and the water-filled silicone part pulls itself inwards. The gripper consists of two chambers: an interior one filled with compressed air, and a water-filled exterior chamber that encloses it. The gripper consists of a nontraditional, double-acting cylinder with one chamber filled with compressed air; and a second one permanently filled with water and includes an elastic silicone molding.

Flex Shape Gripper: Ein Greifer wie eine Chamäleonzunge Von Roboternetz-News im Forum Neuigkeiten / Technik-News / Nachrichten / Aktuelles Antworten: 0 As long as the object’s surface isn’t too broad for the gripper head to wrap around, the FlexShapeGripper should be able to snag it.Copyright ©2020 Designtechnica Corporation.

Simultaneously, the handling system guides the gripper further across the object.

Inspired by the manner in which a chameleon’s tongue grabs its prey, the gripper uses a soft, fluid-filled silicone bag in lieu of a mechanical claw.

Simultaneously, the handling system guides the gripper further across the object.

Published on Oct 31, 2018 Adaptive gripper fingers for smooth and flexible gripping, with the Fin Ray Effect® derived from the movement of a fish’s tail fin. It’s fitting, since recreating the human hand — and all of its tactile sensibility and soft gripping control — is not an easy task.
