To realize robotic fingers that naturally grasp like human fingers, underactuated linkage mechanisms are widely investigated. It is also known that the mechanisms are easily realized by using paper or thin plates, which realizes soft and disposable hand suitable for food manipulation. However, previous realizations were difficult to craft and forced to use adhesives. We have proposed a new design of a simply assembled paper hand that is fabricated in a few seconds by bending only four points and engaging three cuts. This report shows a design and some performances of handling foods.
