I'll admit I say this with almost no experience building manipulators, but that seems /unlikely/. Human fingers are /fairly/ well designed for untieing nots. We can bend them lots of different ways at lots of different points. Building a manipulator with anywhere near that amount of complexity isn't feasible.
