Autovariable Robotics has officially introduced the TwinDEX, a twin three-finger robotic hand boasting nine degrees of freedom for dexterous manipulation. This innovative system comprises two main components: a wearable, non-robotic data acquisition system and a corresponding robotic end-effector. The former is tasked with gathering data, while the latter is deployed on actual robots. Remarkably, this product empowers basic models to undertake complex tasks after being trained on merely a few hundred non-robotic data samples. Its efficiency in non-robotic data acquisition surpasses that of real-robot teleoperation by 5.3 times, nearly rendering real-robot teleoperation data obsolete.

The design of TwinDEX revolves around three core principles: dexterity, consistency, and scalability. When it comes to dexterity, TwinDEX features a three-finger, nine-degree-of-freedom configuration (including seven active degrees of freedom), representing the most streamlined yet effective solution for dexterous manipulation. In terms of consistency, the system is engineered to facilitate pure non-robotic data training, with consistency metrics meticulously designed for the data acquisition end. As for scalability, TwinDEX utilizes a wearable three-finger exoskeleton as its data acquisition interface, enabling parallel expansion and overcoming the limitations of data scale.
