Tactile-Driven Gentle Grasping for Human-Robot Collaborative Tasks
Christopher J. Ford, Haoran Li, John Lloyd +4
This paper presents a control scheme for force sensitive, gentle grasping with a Pisa/IIT anthropomorphic SoftHand equipped with a miniaturised version of the TacTip optical tactil…
Performance Analysis of Vibrotactile and Slide-and-Squeeze Haptic Feedback Devices for Limbs Postural Adjustment
Marta Lorenzini, Simone Ciotti, Juan M. Gandarias +3
Recurrent or sustained awkward body postures are among the most frequently cited risk factors to the development of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). To prevent worker…
BRL/Pisa/IIT SoftHand: A Low-cost, 3D-Printed, Underactuated, Tendon-Driven Hand with Soft and Adaptive Synergies
Haoran Li, Christopher J. Ford, Matteo Bianchi +3
This paper introduces the BRL/Pisa/IIT (BPI) SoftHand: a single actuator-driven, low-cost, 3D-printed, tendon-driven, underactuated robot hand that can be used to perform a range o…
Towards integrated tactile sensorimotor control in anthropomorphic soft robotic hands
Nathan F. Lepora, Andrew Stinchcombe, Chris Ford +5
In this work, we report on the integrated sensorimotor control of the Pisa/IIT SoftHand, an anthropomorphic soft robot hand designed around the principle of adaptive synergies, wit…
Latest Datasets and Technologies Presented in the Workshop on Grasping and Manipulation Datasets
Matteo Bianchi, Jeannette Bohg, Yu Sun
This paper reports the activities and outcomes in the Workshop on Grasping and Manipulation Datasets that was organized under the International Conference on Robotics and Automatio…
Synergy-Based Hand Pose Sensing: Optimal Glove Design
Matteo Bianchi, Paolo Salaris, Antonio Bicchi
In this paper we study the problem of improving human hand pose sensing device performance by exploiting the knowledge on how humans most frequently use their hands in grasping tas…
Synergy-based Hand Pose Sensing: Reconstruction Enhancement
Matteo Bianchi, Paolo Salaris, Antonio Bicchi
Low-cost sensing gloves for reconstruction posture provide measurements which are limited under several regards. They are generated through an imperfectly known model, are subject…
