چکیده

This paper describes the development of a database of grasping requirements for existing crew aids, tools (CATs) and interfaces used during extravehicular activity (EVA). This database identifies the basic grasping requirements of 242 CATs and interfaces found in the EVA Tools and Equipment Reference Book. The results of this study show that over 50% of these grasps are cylindrical, and that it may be possible for a three-fingered hand to achieve over 90% of these grasps. This has led to the development of a multifingered dexterous robot hand that can achieve cylindrical grasps, while producing the holding strength necessary for grasping several CATs and interfaces included in the database.

Optimal Trajectory Planning of a Box Transporter Mobile Robot

This paper aims to discuss the requirements of safe and smooth trajectory planning of transporter mobile robots to perform non-prehensile object manipulation task. In non-prehensile approach, the robot and the object must keep their grasp-less contact during manipulation task. To this end, dynamic grasp concept is employed for a box manipulation task and corresponding conditions are obtained an...

EEG Based Brain Computer Interface Hand Grasp Control: Feature Extraction Method MTCSP

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) are communication systems, which enable users to send commands to computers by using brain activity only; this activity being generally measured by Electroencephalography (EEG). BCIs are generally designed according to a pattern recognition approach, i.e., by extracting features from EEG signals, and by using a classifier to identify the user’s mental state from...
