Geometric Camera Calibration Using Circular Control Points
Modern CCD cameras are usually capable of a spatial accuracy greater than 1/50 of the pixel size. However, such accuracy is not easily attained due to various error sources that c...

A Kinematic Thumb Model for the ACT Hand
- The thumb is essential to the hand’s function in grasping and manipulating objects. Previous anthropomorphic robot hands have thumbs that are biologically-inspired but kinemati...

Tactile Measurement of Local Contact Geometry Using Soft Fingertip with Force/Torque Sensor
— We propose a new method of tactile sensing for a fingertip of robotic hand based on the analysis of the mechanical constraints imposed to the contact between the fingertip an...

Tactile Sensing of Edge Direction of an Object with a Soft Fingertip Contact
— We propose a new method of tactile sensing for a fingertip of robotic hand. Using a simple fingertip with soft surface cover and a six-axis force/torque sensor, developed is ...

Sensor-Based Exploration: Incremental Construction of the Hierarchical Generalized Voronoi Graph
This paper prescribes an incremental procedure to construct roadmaps of unknown environments. Recall that a roadmap is a geometric structure that a robot uses to plan a path betwe...
