— We propose a new method of tactile sensing for a fingertip of robotic hand. Using a simple fingertip with soft surface cover and a six-axis force/torque sensor, developed is ...
— This paper proposes a new contact deformation model between a hemispherical soft fingertip and an object. First, we develop our proposed contact model, in which an elastic pot...
— Recent work on robotic exploration and active sensing has examined a variety of information-theoretic approaches to efficient and convergent map construction. These involve mo...
— The problem of simultaneous localization and mapping has received much attention over the last years. Especially large scale environments, where the robot trajectory loops back...
— This paper proposes a control scheme dedicated to underactuated fingers with the intention of maximizing the capabilities of the latter using tactile and position information ...
