Finishing up a robot project but struggling with useful hands. I want to be able to pick items up at different angles, move them and put them down. I tried a complicated hand with 5 servo's. It looks cool but doesn't work very well as a hand. I tried the old robot claws we all know and they work well but are very heavy due to the fact I have 2 HDD servo's one for wrist and one for the claw, so the arm and shoulder servo's struggle to lift the hands let alone an object.
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a light weight but functional hands that can pick up an object from any angle?

It looks like this...
*Edit: i looked for some photos but couldn't find anything of what i'm thinking. The gripper wouldn't open and close to the left/right. It'd be more like a clamp protruding inline from the arm.
The servo would wind up or release a band which would be pinned at the other end(yellow pin). Move the lasso around the object, wind up the extra band, and away you go!
All this for a lousy cup of joe. Although I really want the fetch me a beer and chips bot. 4 min and 25 second mark. Oh in this clip he says Powerful AI Is how he works out what type of door it was (I just thought it was the AR Tag on the ground in front of the fridge.)
Hats off to UBTech for dreaming big though - it's easy to see when people are faking it, because they can't fake it to people who have the ability to do it
