Decentralized cooperative manipulation with a swarm of mobile robots
— In this paper we consider cooperative manipulation problems where a large group (swarm) of non-articulated mobile robots is trying to cooperatively control the velocity of some...

Force/moment sensing during sliding motion using a micro sensor embedded in a soft fingertip
—We have investigated the deformation of a soft fingertip when it slides. This process was first simulated using ANSYS software with non-linear Finite Element Analysis (FEA). B...

Distributed grasp synthesis for swarm manipulation with applications to autonomous tugboats
— Assume a swarm of mobile robots is in the act of transporting a large object in the plane, by applying unilateral forces to the perimeter of that object. We address the questio...

Free-Form Tactile Sensor Using 3-Dimensional Shape Capture Sheet
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...
