Ball Juggling System with High-speed Multifingered Hand-Arm and High-speed Vision

Development of a High-speed Multifingered Hand System

Abslrael-In this paper we introduce 8 newly developed high-speed multi-fingered robotic hand. The hand has 8joints and 3-fingen. A newly developed small harmonic drive gear and a high-power mini actuator are fitted in each finger link, and a strain gauge sensor is in each joint. The weight of the hand module is only 0.8kg, hut high-speed motion and high-power grasping are possible. The hand can...

Development of a high-speed multifingered hand system and its application to catching

In this paper we introduce a newly developed high-speed multi-fingered robotic hand. The hand has 8joints and 3-fingers. A newly developed small harmonic drive gear and a high-power mini actuator are fitted in each finger link, and a strain gauge sensor is in each joint. The weight of the hand module is only 0.8kg, but high-speed motion and high-power grasping are possible. The hand can close i...

Radio Frequency-micro Electromechanical System Switch with High Speed and Low Actuated Voltage

This paper presents a novel RF MEMS (Micro Electromechanical System) fixed-fixed switch for very fast switching. Using the obtained equations, the switching time depends on the stiffness and effective mass of the switch beam so that the switching time will be decreased by higher stiffness (spring constant) and lower effective mass. In new design, the suspension bridge is a three-layer beam so t...

High-Speed Penternary Inverter Gate Using GNRFET

This paper introduces a new design of penternary inverter gate based on graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (GNRFET). The penternary logic is one of Multiple-valued logic (MVL) circuits which are the best substitute for binary logic because of its low power-delay product (PDP) resulting from reduced complexity of interconnects and chip area. GNRFET is preferred over Si-MOSFET for circui...
