Probe-to-Grasp Manipulation Using Self-Sensing Pneumatic Variable-Stiffness Joints
Ngoc Duy Tran, Yeman Fan, Feng Dai +5
Grasping deformable objects with varying stiffness remains a significant challenge in robotics. Estimating the local stiffness of a target object is important for determining an op…
MobiDock: Design and Control of A Modular Self Reconfigurable Bimanual Mobile Manipulator via Robotic Docking
Xuan-Thuan Nguyen, Khac Nam Nguyen, Ngoc Duy Tran +4
Multi-robot systems, particularly mobile manipulators, face challenges in control coordination and dynamic stability when working together. To address this issue, this study propos…
Soft Rigid Hybrid Gripper with Inflatable Silicone Pockets for Tunable Frictional Grasping
Hoang Hiep Ly, Cong-Nhat Nguyen, Doan-Quang Tran +6
Grasping objects with diverse mechanical properties, such as heavy, slippery, or fragile items, remains a significant challenge in robotics. Conventional rigid grippers typically r…
