This goes beyond standard conception of finger digit manipulation,may I refer you to this same site for DHL requirement for a robotic selection pack and stack machine,competition.
Secondly for the simplist hand finger digit movement, I have made, coiled springs with coils releaved at bend points with flexible internal tubing connected using either hydaulics or pneumatics,
Offers 0-90 degree movement,by bulging and forcing open spring ,multiples of arrangement offer hands and other concepts with minimumn complications.
