Those who are into space research and space technology would know that ther3e couldn’t be a better institution than NASA which is at the forefront of space research. If you could just take a little while and gather the knowledge about the various space research programs that they have come to conduct, you would be surprised to know that even Russia cannot beat this venerable institution. Now, robotics isn’t very far from space technology and robots are used at almost all the levels in space exploration.

If you are into robots and robotic technology, you should go ahead and take a look at the Omni-Hand I,  built in the early ‘90s by Mark Rosheim and funded by NASA contracts NAS8-37638 and NAS8-38417. The robot even comes with gloves that are made by NASA and the complete package comes with a number of goodies.

Omni-Hand with base and space glove, power box, motion controller, extra power box, motion controller, hand control software for PC and an original copy of the Robot Evolution: The Development of Anthrobotics are some of the goodies that you would get. The package costs $18,750.
