- The M1 features a highly backdrivable, tendon-driven design, covering the full range of human hand capabilities from heavy-duty to fine manipulation.
- Shared content mentions that shaking hands with the U1 glove feels remarkably similar to shaking the M1 robot hand, demonstrating a tight integration between tactile feedback and interaction.
