This Disembodied Hand Is All the Robot You Need
A hand attached to the end of an arm is a given for most humans, but what if robots didn’t have to play by the same rules as we do? Researchers from ETH Zurich have turned an off-the-shelf robotic hand into a completely self-contained robot that walks on its fingertips while using those same finger
Multipurpose body parts could lead to more flexible robot designs

With a little bit of modification and training, an off the shelf robot hand can be an entire mobile robot.
