Exclusive / Solving for the hand: Startup wants to pay prosthetic users to teach robots
Psyonic, a San Diego startup that makes bionic prosthetic hands, plans to deploy thousands of its hands in developing nations like Pakistan and India, paying amputees to wear them so it can capture grip, force, and torque data to train robotic hand models. The effort aims both to perfect robotic manipulation—a longstanding challenge in physical AI—and to subsidize prosthetic costs and provide economic livelihood to users. The article also notes that Unitree Robotics recently unveiled a new human-sized robotic hand with 22 degrees of freedom.
