A Quantitative Stability Measure for Graspless Manipulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the stability of objects in graspless manipulation (or nonprehensile manipulation) is investigated. In contrast with the stability of grasps, it is crucial for the stability of graspless manipulation to evaluate frictional forces applied to objects in contact motion. We formulate the effect of Coulomb friction and propose a quantitative stability measure for graspless manipulation. The measure can be calculated approximately with linear programming. Finally, we show numerical examples. Our stability measure will be useful in planning of graspless manipulation.

Automatic determination of finger control modes for graspless manipulation
To achieve various manipulation tasks by robot fingers, we have to use both position control and force control appropriately. In this paper, we propose a method to determine such control modes of robot fingers in graspless manipulation. Using the method, we can assign a positionor force-control mode to each robot finger so that the maximum manipulation stability will be achieved without excessi...
متن کاملPlanning of graspless manipulation by a multifingered robot hand
Graspless (or nonprehensile) manipulation is a method to manipulate objects without grasping. It includes pushing, tumbling and pivoting. Graspless manipulation is important as a complement of conventional pick-and-place for the dexterity of robots. In this paper, we propose a method of planning of general graspless manipulation by multifingered robot hands; the method can automatically generat...
متن کاملPlanning of Graspless Manipulation by Multiple Robot Fingers
Graspless manipulation is to manipulate objects without grasping by just pushing, tumbling, and so on. One of the main difficulties in graspless manipulation is planning. It is very time-consuming to plan a general graspless manipulation problem, because it requires complicated mechanical analysis including friction. To reduce the load of computation, we adopt a two-step approach: 1) constructi...
متن کاملMassive Rock Handling by a Breaker -Graspless Manipulation and Object Recognition-
The purpose of this study is automated handling of massive rocks for moving them to a proper place and for breaking them down at a rock quarry. This paper reports our first approach in laboratory environment using a robotic manipulator with a small sized laser range finder(LRF) to handle a relatively small object. For tumbling operation, we apply image processing techniques onto range images cr...
متن کاملTeaching of grasp/graspless manipulation for industrial robots by human demonstration
In this paper, we propose a simple teaching method for industrial robots by human demonstration. The method can be divided into two parts: the teaching phase and the planning phase. In the teaching phase, a human operator demonstrates a manipulation of an object, and two cameras recognize the path of the object by observing markers attached on the object. In the planning phase, a motion planner...
