Editor's notes
Unverified (free text): official-spec-page. voltage 24 is a midpoint of the stated 18-28 V DC input (15 W static, 180 W transient peak). Dimensions 208 x 90 x 50 mm. release_year 2025 reflects the ICRA May 2025 demonstration and "out of stock in late 2025" (KrASIA); the Gasgoo search result mentions a "Special Edition" with pre-orders (not fetched). KrASIA cites ~USD 50,000 per hand (36kr); Robotics Center lists USD 55,000. sharpa.com itself was not fetched. Opposable thumb is taken from the task brief and the "isomorphic to the human hand" description.
