Dexterous hand URDF collection
DexSuite · Family resource
Research-maintained visual and collision models for multiple hand families.
Inspect the model directory and upstream asset license; revision, size and sensor geometry may differ from your hand.
Hand motion retargeting
DexSuite · Family resource
Human-to-robot motion optimizers with configurations for the listed hand families.
Retargeting generates joint targets; it is not a device driver. Verify model geometry and joint order.
Inspire hand research SDK
NYU Robot Learning · Family resource
Research-maintained Python control and kinematics tools for the RH56 family.
Third-party integration, not an Inspire manufacturer SDK. Verify the RS-485 protocol and exact variant.
