We introduce one module in a cognitive system that learns the shape of objects by active exploration. More specifically, we propose a feature tracking scheme that makes use of the...

This paper presents a method for building analytical contact models for soft fingers. Friction constraints are derived based on general expressions for non-planar contacts of ela...

— This paper provides that an elastic force and an elastic potential energy due to the deformation of soft fingers, which are previously derived, can be calculated into straight...
Abstract— We propose a control framework for the bilateral teleoperation between a single master robot and multiple cooperative slave robots with communication-delay in the maste...
Abstract— The greatest characteristic of soft-fingered manipulation is its softness and flexibility during manipulating operations. In previous works, this intrinsic property h...
