We are developing a novel sensing device named “3-dimensional capture sheet (3DCS)”. The cloth-like sheet measures its own 3D configuration. The sheet enables us to make a sof...
This paper studies the reconstruction of unknown curved surfaces through finger tracking. A patch can be generated from tactile data points along three concurrent surface curves un...
We describe the results of a set of evolutionary experiments in which a simulated robotic arm provided with a two-fingered hand has to reach and grasp objects with different shape...
— 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...
In this paper, we introduce the change of a mobile phone's hardware shape as a means of tactile interaction. The alteration of shape is implemented in a hardware prototype us...
