Industrial assembly involves sensing the pose (orientation and position) of a part. Efficient and reliable sensing strategies can be developed for an assembly task if the shape of...
A systematic approach to modeling of deformable soft parts for their manipulation is presented. Various deformable parts such as cords, leather products, and sheet metals are mani...
An analytical and experimental investigation of a jet pipe controlled electropneumatic servoactuator designed for use in the Utah/MIT dextrous hand (UMDH) has been performed. An ac...
Solid Freeform Fabrication and Shape Deposition are rapid manufacturing processes which build parts by incremental material deposition and fusion of cross-sectional layers. In thi...
