In this paper, a MFRH with five fingers is modeled and simulated for grasping task. This was done using a CAD tool known as Solidworks, and an analytical tool known as SimMechanics of MATLAB. The simulation results show that the improved performance of grasping functions for MFRH. %K Analytical tool; CAD tool; Modeling; Modeling and simulation; Multi-fingered robot hand; SimMechanics; Simulation; Simulation result; SolidWorks, Computer aided design; Computer simulation; End effectors; Medical applications; Robotics, Robotic arms %C Kuala Lumpur %T Modeling and simulation of a multi-fingered robot hand %A W.F.B.
