3D model description

This is the LAD Robotic Hand, V2.0.
https://youtu.be/Z-mKY8PXqL8

The hand is fully compatible with the LAD Robotic Torso
https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/gadget/lad-robotic-torso-v1-0-humanoid-robot

The LAD Robotic Hand is easy to print in a conventional FDM 3D printer, like the Creality Ender 3.

The hand has five movable fingers, each capable of flexion/extension and adduction/abduction. The thumb is more stable in this version, which can oppose to the other four fingers individually. Its weight is 680gr (1.5 pounds).

The tips of each finger are made of TPU to improve the grasping force. The rest is made of hard material (PLA, PETG, etc)

You will download the complete package, which includes:
*STL files, easily printable in a conventional FDM 3D printer
*Installation Manual with step-by-step instructions on how to assembly the hand
*Layout of connections on an Arduino Nano board.
*Arduino code to get you starting with the control of the hand. You can run the predefined moves or create your own and add them to the code. Just follow the format shown in the code and use the function "actuate_quick( int f, int flex, int abd)"
For calibration procedure, refer to the "LAD RoboHand Arduino Control V1.1: Instructions Manual.PDF", and watch the following video if you have any doubts:
