灵巧手在接触密集型操作中至关重要,近年在硬件、传感、控制、仿真和数据生成方面快速进步。然而,现有研究常基于不同的手部构型、感知配置、任务设定、训练数据和评估协议,难以系统比较,也模糊了领域发展脉络。本综述从四个互补角度展开:首先分析硬件层面的驱动、传动、感知及代表性手型设计,强调力能力、柔顺性、带宽、集成度与系统复杂性的关键权衡;其次从方法论视角回顾灵巧操控的控制与学习技术,按主要范式分类并追踪其演进历程;再者整合数据集、模态设计与评估实践,使方法进展能与训练、基准和评测方式协同解读;最后讨论当前研究的主要局限,并总结未来方向。通过连接硬件、方法、数据与评估,本综述旨在提供灵巧手研究的结构化理解,明确未来关键挑战。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Robotic dexterous hands are central to contact-rich manipulation, with rapid progress driven by advances in hardware, sensing, control, simulation, and data generation. However, existing studies are often developed under different assumptions regarding hand embodiments, sensory configurations, task settings, training data, and evaluation protocols, making systematic comparison difficult and obscuring the developmental trajectory of the field. This survey provides a holistic review of dexterous hand research from four complementary aspects. First, we present a hardware-level analysis covering actuation, transmission, perception, and representative hand designs, highlighting the key trade-offs in force capability, compliance, bandwidth, integration, and system complexity. Furthermore, we review control and learning methods for dexterous manipulation from a methodological perspective, grouping representative works by major paradigms and tracing their evolution in chronological order. In addition, we consolidate datasets, modality design, and evaluation practices, which enables methodological progress to be interpreted together with the ways in which it is trained, benchmarked, and assessed. Finally, we discuss the major limitations of current dexterous hand research and summarize the corresponding future directions. By connecting hardware analysis, methodological development, data resources, and evaluation, this survey aims to provide a structured understanding of dexterous hand research and to clarify the most important open challenges for future study.
