World's First Stainless Steel Robot With 7 Degrees Of Freedom

Say hello to world's first ever robot with stainless steel body featuring seven degrees of freedom. The bot has been developed by Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries and is expected to be employed for discovery of drugs and other operations in the pharmaceutical field to automate the experiments. The robot will work on dangerous chemicals. Because of the stainless steel body, the robot can be sterilized using Hydrogen Peroxide gas so that it can work in sterile environments.The robot is expected to launch in January 2014.

    Minimum degrees of freedom for full coverage in 3d space are six ..
    additional dof add redundancies..ie a single point in space can be reached in more than one way..
    Human hand has 27 DOF 😁
