Many practical dextrous manipulation tasks involve large-scale motion of the grasped object while maintaining a stable grasp. To plan such tasks, one must control both the motion ...
The goal of this paper is to define the n-connected regions in the Cartesian workspace of fully-parallel manipulators, i.e. the maximal regions where it is possible to execute po...
In this paper, we describe a parallel solution scheme of inverse dynamics, and its application to flexible manipulators where elastic deformation and vibration normally occur in c...
- 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...
Abstract— In this paper, the architectural parameters optimization of a three-prismatic-universal-universal (3-PUU) parallel kinematic machine (PKM) with three translational degr...
