Abstract— Research on humanoid robots for use in servicing tasks, e.g. fetching and delivery, attracts steadily more interest. With ”Rollin’ Justin” a mobile robotic system...
The range of human kinematic motion as well as force resolution should be known for design of a haptic device. In addition, a haptic interface can be designed more easily when mas...
This work intends to deal with the optimal kinematic synthesis problem of parallel manipulators under a unified framework. Observing that regular (e.g., hyper-rectangular) workspac...
Abstract— We describe here our proposed method to investigate the sliding motion of a soft fingertip in the dexterous manipulation. This paper focuses on analyzing dynamic slidi...
— Manipulating microscopic objects with the necessary dexterity still remains a very challenging task. In this paper, we propose a freeze gripper able to manipulate micro-objects...
