In this paper, we propose a novel approach to extracting rheological properties of deformable objects based on Haptic vision, which was proposed for vision-based automatic constru...
—Robotic surgical assistants are enhancing physician performance, enabling physicians to perform more delicate and precise minimally invasive surgery. However, these devices are ...
For reaching to and grasping of an object, visual information about the object must be transformed into motor or postural commands for the arm and hand. In this paper, we present a...
