Grab objects with this robotic arm extension by squeezing the handle. Pick up objects that are out of reach, or have fun clawing everything and everyone around you! This robot arm moves with a real ratchet sound to complete the effect. A great device to learn about simple machines and how toys work, or to stimulate discussions on robot dexterity and even robotic surgery.

What you get

Bionic robot hand, approx 50cm long, with real ratchet sound. Colours vary.

How does it work?

By squeezing the handle, a thin metal rod that spans the length of the robot arm is forced away from the claw at the end. This in-turn activates a ratchet system within the claw forcing the claw closed. When the handle is released, the metal rod assumes its original position and the claw springs open again with a ratchet sound. Practice grabbing smaller and smaller objects to increase your manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination.
