The human hand provides proof that the anthropomorphic configuration, properly controlled, is successful and gives a target to aim at for artificial hand/robot hand researchers. In this paper we discuss the human hand physiology and grasp capabilities. We then provide design on a double thumb, two finger robotic hand. Architecture of the hand, fingers and their dynamic modelling is discussed. Finally, results are reported on the performance of a finger in the hand.
