Wuji Hand

A fully direct-drive dexterous hand with 20 actively driven degrees of freedom, made by Shenzhen-based Wuji Tech.

The Wuji Hand is a humanoid dexterous hand made by WUJI TECH (Shenzhen Wuji Technology Co., Ltd.), with 4 degrees of freedom per finger for 20 actively driven degrees of freedom in total. Its defining feature is being fully direct-drive: small motors are mounted directly inside each finger to drive its joints, rather than coupling several joints together through tendons or linkages the way many dexterous hands do. That means every joint can be controlled independently and is back-drivable (an external force can push the joint), which helps with force control and safe contact. Company documentation lists 20-axis control at 1,000 Hz over Ethernet. The first generation reportedly sold for about RMB 50,000, and official demos have shown it spinning a pen, using scissors, and picking up a ball with chopsticks. A second generation, the Wuji Hand 2, was reportedly shown at ICRA 2026. It's often paired with a data glove for teleoperated data collection in dexterous-manipulation research.

ExampleA researcher wears a data glove to teleoperate the Wuji Hand through spinning a pen and clicking a lighter; the collected data is used to train dexterous-manipulation policies.
