Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manipulation using dextrous robot hands has been an exciting yet frustrating research topic for the last several years. While significant progress has occurred in the design, construction, and low level control of robotic hands, researchers are up against fundamental problems in developing algorithms for real-time computations in multi-sensory processing and motor control. The aim of this book is to explore parallels in sensorimotor integration in dextrous robot and human hands, addressing the basic question of how the next generation of dextrous hands should evolve. By bringing together experimental psychologists, kinesiologists, computer scientists, electrical engineers, and mechanical engineers, the book covers topics that range from human hand usage in prehension and exploration, to the design and use of robotic sensors and multi-fingered hands, and to control and computational architectures for dextrous hand usage. While the ultimate goal of capturing human hand versatility remains elusive, this book makes an important contribution to the design and control of future dextrous robot hands through a simple underlying message: a topic as complex as dextrous manipulation would best be addressed by collaborative, interdisciplinary research, combining high level and low level views, drawing parallels between human studies and analytic approaches, and integrating sensory data with motor commands. As seen in this text, success has been made through the establishment of such collaborative efforts. The future will hold up to expectations only as researchers become aware of advances in parallel fields and as a common vocabulary emerges from integrated perceptions about manipulation.
Download or read book From Robot to Human Grasping Simulation written by Beatriz León and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-29 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human hand and its dexterity in grasping and manipulating objects are some of the hallmarks of the human species. For years, anatomic and biomechanical studies have deepened the understanding of the human hand’s functioning and, in parallel, the robotics community has been working on the design of robotic hands capable of manipulating objects with a performance similar to that of the human hand. However, although many researchers have partially studied various aspects, to date there has been no comprehensive characterization of the human hand’s function for grasping and manipulation of everyday life objects. This monograph explores the hypothesis that the confluence of both scientific fields, the biomechanical study of the human hand and the analysis of robotic manipulation of objects, would greatly benefit and advance both disciplines through simulation. Therefore, in this book, the current knowledge of robotics and biomechanics guides the design and implementation of a simulation framework focused on manipulation interactions that allows the study of the grasp through simulation. As a result, a valuable framework for the study of the grasp, with relevant applications in several fields such as robotics, biomechanics, ergonomics, rehabilitation and medicine, has been made available to these communities.

Download or read book Human and Robot Hands written by Matteo Bianchi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the common problems both human and robotic hands encounter when controlling the large number of joints, actuators and sensors required to efficiently perform motor tasks such as object exploration, manipulation and grasping. The authors adopt an integrated approach to explore the control of the hand based on sensorimotor synergies that can be applied in both neuroscience and robotics. Hand synergies are based on goal-directed, combined muscle and kinematic activation leading to a reduction of the dimensionality of the motor and sensory space, presenting a highly effective solution for the fast and simplified design of artificial systems. Presented in two parts, the first part, Neuroscience, provides the theoretical and experimental foundations to describe the synergistic organization of the human hand. The second part, Robotics, Models and Sensing Tools, exploits the framework of hand synergies to better control and design robotic hands and haptic/sensing systems/tools, using a reduced number of control inputs/sensors, with the goal of pushing their effectiveness close to the natural one. Human and Robot Hands provides a valuable reference for students, researchers and designers who are interested in the study and design of the artificial hand.

Download or read book A Novel Three finger Dexterous Hand with Visual based Grasp Planning and Tactile based Stable Grasping written by Tao Wang and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robotic manipulation is a complex field that still faces numerous challenges. With the development of collaborative robots, the end-effector area is just beginning to gain traction, and electrically driven end-effectors are just starting to be widely used in the industry. One of the fundamental requirements for a robot to achieve practical applications is stable grasping. However, in reality, most stable grasping relies on specific static conditions and human experience. As the robotic industry continues to develop more complex and diverse applications, the need for stable grasping to support these high-level applications increases. To achieve more complex and stable grasping functions, a complex end-effector, such as a dexterous hand, becomes essential hardware. This thesis focuses on building a novel practical dexterous hand that can be used in robotic manipulation research. To make better use of the dexterous hand, visual-based grasp planning, and tactile-based stable grasping are necessary to form a stable grasping system. In this thesis, three crucial topics were selected and divided into three parts of the work: dexterous hand, grasp planning, and stable grasping. The dexterous hand part includes the main design work of a modular three-finger dexterous hand called DoraHand and partial work on another one called Eagle Shoal. The performance of the DoraHand and the tactile sensor module is showcased through experiments. Two-finger and five-finger versions of the DoraHand have also been developed and tested in real applications, providing a reliable hardware foundation for further research. The grasp planning part focuses on providing a grasp planning solution for the dexterous hand. As an essential function of using an end-effector, this part starts with an analytic solution that considers the limitations of the dexterous hand mechanism and grasp quality evaluation. A grasp planning network has been developed using both analytic and data-driven approaches. The network features a multi-finger grasp plan representation method and has been successfully verified. The stable grasping part is the final application of this thesis, where the hardware provides the foundation and the stable grasping algorithm utilizes the tactile sensor. An open-source visual-tactile dataset has been developed using the Eagle Shoal dexterous hand. The stable grasping algorithm, built based on this dataset, has been successfully verified with different types of end-effectors, including DoraHand and suction cup gripper. Overall, these three parts of work constitute the critical components of a stable grasping system using a dexterous hand. This system and related dataset enable further research in stable grasping and robotic manipulation. The primary objective of this thesis has been successfully achieved with the development of DoraHand, which has been used by over twenty research institutes and companies. The algorithms developed for grasp planning and stable grasping serve as a foundation for future research in this field, while the dataset can be used as a benchmark for comprehensive robotic research. Further development is needed to explore the potential applications of the dexterous hand in robotic manipulation.
