- 20 DoF / 15 Actuators Twenty degrees of freedom across five fingers driven by 15 actuators enable 31 distinct manipulation types from precision pinch to whole-hand power grasp.
- Sub-Second Open/Close Speed Full open-to-close cycles complete in under one second, enabling responsive, high-throughput manipulation in service and automation workflows.
- Fingertip Tactile Sensing High-precision tactile sensors at each fingertip detect subtle pressure changes, supporting delicate object handling and closed-loop force control.
- Tendon-Style Drive Tendon actuation reproduces natural finger kinematics, enabling the same grip patterns used by human hands across the full manipulation repertoire.
- ROS-Compatible Modular Build Modular architecture with native ROS integration enables rapid deployment on third-party robotic arms, humanoid platforms, and research systems.
- Wall-OSS AI Ecosystem Designed for use with X Square's open-source Wall-OSS embodied AI foundation model, unifying perception, reasoning, and manipulation in a single generalisable framework.
Description
The X Square ArtiXon is a highly biomimetic five-finger robotic hand featuring 20 degrees of freedom (DoF) and 15 actuators, enabling 31 distinct dexterous manipulation types including pinching, grasping, and twisting — with full open-to-close cycles completing in under one second. Designed to replicate the anthropomorphic geometry of the human hand, the ArtiXon uses tendon-style drive to achieve natural finger motion profiles, and mounts fingertip-mounted high-precision tactile sensors that allow the system to perceive subtle pressure changes during contact — critical for fragile-object handling, food service, and precision assembly tasks. The modular architecture supports straightforward integration with ROS-based systems, making it accessible for research teams and systems integrators building generalised manipulation platforms.
The ArtiXon serves as the primary end-effector in X Square's Quanta X2 wheeled bimanual humanoid robot, which carries a 20 DoF ArtiXon on each arm as part of a total 62 DoF system. Developed alongside X Square's open-source Wall-OSS embodied AI foundation model — which integrates perception, reasoning, and manipulation in a unified framework available via GitHub and Hugging Face — the ArtiXon is positioned for research, service robotics, and intelligent automation scenarios where generalised, adaptive manipulation matters more than narrow task-specific performance. X Square Robot, founded in 2023 and having raised a $100 million Series A, offers the ArtiXon as a standalone end-effector for third-party robotic platforms as well as integrated into its own Quanta product family.

Frequently Asked Questions
The ArtiXon is a biomimetic five-finger robotic hand with 20 DoF and 15 actuators, engineered to perform 31 dexterous manipulation types including pinching, grasping, and twisting. It is designed for research platforms, service robots, and intelligent automation systems where generalised and adaptive manipulation is required.
The ArtiXon combines 20 degrees of freedom with tendon-style actuation to replicate natural human finger kinematics, fingertip tactile sensors for pressure feedback, and sub-one-second open/close cycles — giving it the speed, sensitivity, and grip variety to handle fragile objects, tools, and everyday items.
The ArtiXon is suited to robotics research institutions, university labs, industrial automation integrators, and service-robot developers working on manipulation, assembly, food service, healthcare assistance, and any domain requiring human-like generalised hand capability.
