THETA: Triangulated Hand-State Estimation for Teleoperation and Automation in Robotic Hand Control
Alex Huang, Akshay Karthik
The teleoperation of robotic hands is limited by the high costs of depth cameras and sensor gloves, commonly used to estimate hand relative joint positions (XYZ). We present a nove…
