Kazuhiro Miyama, Shun Hasegawa, Kento Kawaharazuka +3
The purpose of this study is to construct a contact point estimation system for the both side of a finger, and to realize a motion of bending the finger after inserting the finger…
Fundamental Three-Dimensional Configuration of Wire-Wound Muscle-Tendon Complex Drive
Yoshimoto Ribayashi, Yuta Sahara, Shogo Sawaguchi +5
For robots to become more versatile and expand their areas of application, their bodies need to be suitable for contact with the environment. When the human body comes into contact…
Patterned Structure Muscle : Arbitrary Shaped Wire-driven Artificial Muscle Utilizing Anisotropic Flexible Structure for Musculoskeletal Robots
Shunnosuke Yoshimura, Akihiro Miki, Kazuhiro Miyama +4
Muscles of the human body are composed of tiny actuators made up of myosin and actin filaments. They can exert force in various shapes such as curved or flat, under contact forces…
