GourmetGrip – Picking Food Items of Different Shapes
Having a reconfigurable base, our GourmetGrip can pick items with different shapes, such as trianglular, circular, squarish, or other irregular shapes (such as potato cubes and broccoli).
If you think that GourmetGrip can only be used in the factory environment – you’re wrong.
The National University of Singapore (NUS) has developed hybrid robotic grippers, which it claims can impact a range of industries such as food assembly, vertical farming and fast-moving consumer goods packaging, etc.
GourmetGrip can be used to handle meat pieces or sticks of satay. The food-safe sleeves ensure food hygiene when the fingers are in direct contact with the food items.
Inspired by the natural dexterity of the human hand, a team of engineers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has created a reconfigurable hybrid robotics system that is able to grip a variety of objects: from the small, soft and delicate to the large, heavy and bulky.
We are pleased to showcase and introduce our soft robotic gripping technologies at the NUS Enterprise’s InnovFest x Elevating Founders Asia, the official start-up event of Asia Tech x Singapore (ATxSG).
