Rotograb: Combining Biomimetic Hands with Industrial Grippers using a Rotating Thumb
Arnaud Bersier, Matteo Leonforte, Alessio Vanetta +6
The development of robotic grippers and hands for automation aims to emulate human dexterity without sacrificing the efficiency of industrial grippers. This study introduces Rotogr…
Sampling-Based Model Predictive Control for Dexterous Manipulation on a Biomimetic Tendon-Driven Hand
Adrian Hess, Alexander M. Kübler, Benedek Forrai +2
Biomimetic and compliant robotic hands offer the potential for human-like dexterity, but controlling them is challenging due to high dimensionality, complex contact interactions, a…
PokeFlex: A Real-World Dataset of Volumetric Deformable Objects for Robotics
Jan Obrist, Miguel Zamora, Hehui Zheng +5
Data-driven methods have shown great potential in solving challenging manipulation tasks; however, their application in the domain of deformable objects has been constrained, in pa…
PokeFlex: Towards a Real-World Dataset of Deformable Objects for Robotic Manipulation
Jan Obrist, Miguel Zamora, Hehui Zheng +3
Advancing robotic manipulation of deformable objects can enable automation of repetitive tasks across multiple industries, from food processing to textiles and healthcare. Yet robo…
Stretchable Electrohydraulic Artificial Muscle for Full Motion Ranges in Musculoskeletal Antagonistic Joints
Amirhossein Kazemipour, Ronan Hinchet, Robert K. Katzschmann
Artificial muscles play a crucial role in musculoskeletal robotics and prosthetics to approximate the force-generating functionality of biological muscle. However, current artifici…
Sensorized Soft Skin for Dexterous Robotic Hands
Jana Egli, Benedek Forrai, Thomas Buchner +3
Conventional industrial robots often use two-fingered grippers or suction cups to manipulate objects or interact with the world. Because of their simplified design, they are unable…
Replicating Human Anatomy with Vision Controlled Jetting -- A Pneumatic Musculoskeletal Hand and Forearm
Thomas Buchner, Stefan Weirich, Alexander M. Kübler +2
The functional replication and actuation of complex structures inspired by nature is a longstanding goal for humanity. Creating such complex structures combining soft and rigid fea…
