Build and wear your own giant mechanical hand with the Mega Cyborg Hand STEM kit from Thames & Kosmos. This hands-on engineering kit demonstrates how hydraulic and pneumatic systems can replicate the movement and function of a real human hand using mechanical linkages and air pressure.
Once assembled, the wearable cyborg hand allows users to control each finger individually to grab, lift, and manipulate objects. Through interactive experimentation, builders learn how robotic prosthetics, mechanical systems, and engineering principles are used in real-world robotics and biomedical technology.
Designed for STEM learning and creative problem-solving, this educational kit combines robotics, engineering, anatomy, and mechanics into a large-scale interactive build. The included illustrated instruction manual explains the science behind hydraulic systems, finger articulation, and robotic movement.
