IMO university research is limited to range of motion for robotic actuators rather than intuitively performing a set task, I do not think a university will have the funding/incentive to develop it much further beyond writing a few papers. It is incredibly impressive that this is possible at all, same as all the humanoid robots doing all kinds of complicated stunts.
Korea is investing big in robotics, they even own Boston dynamics, it's weird that no company did something with the team that made this. Hell, even the team that made the hand has seemly abandoned this hand design. No other video of their features it and their later robots all have a much less impressive hand design.

probably because getting something as complicated as a fully functional hand to do useful, non-telegraphed action is incredibly difficult. Most current robot hands are simple for utilitarian reasons. why use a 5 fingered hand to grab a factory part when a 3 finger clamper will do the same job?
