Human-inspired force compliant grasping primitives

چکیده
We address the problem of grasping everyday objects that are small relative to an anthropomorphic hand, such as pens, screwdrivers, cellphones, and hammers from their natural poses on a support surface, e.g., a table top. In such conditions, state of the art grasp generation techniques fail to provide robust, achievable solutions due to either ignoring or trying to avoid contact with the support surface. In contrast, when people grasp small objects, they often make use of substantial contact with the support surface. In this paper we give results of human subjects grasping studies which show the extent and characteristics of environment contact under different task conditions. We develop a simple closed-loop hybrid grasping controller that mimics this interactive, contact-rich strategy by a position-force, pre-grasp and landing strategy for finger placement. The approach uses a compliant control of the hand during the grasp and release of objects in order to preserve safety. We conducted extensive robotic grasping experiments on a variety of small objects with similar shape and size. The results demonstrate that our approach is robust to localization uncertainties and applies to many everyday objects.

متن کاملThe Puller-Follower Control of Compliant and Noncompliant Antagonistic Tendon Drives in Robotic Systems
This paper proposes a new control strategy for noncompliant and compliant antagonistic tendon drives. It is applied to a succession of increasingly complex single‐joint systems, starting with a linear and noncompliant system and ending with a revolute, nonlinearly tendon coupled and compliant system. The last configuration mimics the typical human joint struct...
متن کاملPostural primitives: Interactive Behavior for a Humanoid Robot Arm
This paper describes the implementation of reex action for the arm of the humanoid robot Cog [5]. A set of biologically inspired postural primitives are used to create the arm motion. The primitives are combined in di erent ways to achieve reaching with grasping and withdrawal reexes, allowing the arm to interact safely with both objects and people. This paper describes the re exes, the biologi...
متن کاملA robotic device using gecko-inspired adhesives can grasp and manipulate large objects in microgravity
Grasping and manipulating uncooperative objects in space is an emerging challenge for robotic systems. Many traditional robotic grasping techniques used on Earth are infeasible in space. Vacuum grippers require an atmosphere, sticky attachments fail in the harsh environment of space, and handlike opposed grippers are not suited for large, smooth space debris. We present a robotic gripper that c...
متن کاملDynamic modeling of an anthropomimetic robot in contact tasks
Considerations of energy efficiency and safe human-robot interaction have led to an increase in the exploitation of compliance in robotics, and much of this work has been inspired by biological systems. As a consequence, new analytical tools are now required in order to enable the dynamic analysis of these novel compliant robots, especially in their interactions with the environment. This paper...
