# Synthetic hands. Made real.

# Human-level robotic hands.

The Clone Hand is the most biomimetic hand ever created, designed to perform any manipulation task that a human can.

- ## Human-level thumbs.

Many complex tools are only usable by humans because of our highly articulated and strong thumbs.

- ## Surgical precision.

The Clone Hand offers precision never before seen in a high-force robotic manipulator thanks to accurate Myofiber proprioception.

- ## Trigger finger

Clone’s back-drivable, antagonistic muscles and tendons provide its index finger with enough force to pull the trigger on a drill.

- ## Compatible with human tools.

Over the years, humans adapted to the natural world by shaping the environment to their needs. Clones are backwards compatible.

- ## Natural, rounded palms.

The Clone Hand’s palm is a stable bowl, which is distinct from the rectangular block in motor-actuated hands where the fingers close into a cylinder rather than a ball.

# The Hand is the origin of human intelligence.

After 8 years of focused R&D, Clone has created human-level hands with a faithful opposable thumb, arguably the beginnings of human beings’ superior animal intelligence.

# Anthropomorphic design    accelerates neural training.

# Introducing Myofiber

The anthropomorphic Clone Hand was made possible thanks to Clone’s proprietary Myofiber technology. With these artificial muscle fibers, Clone can animate any natural skeleton, human or animal.
