Experiments with Haptic Perception in a Robotic Hand
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a robotic hand, LUCS Haptic Hand I, that has been built as a first step in a project aiming at the study haptic perception. Grasping tests with the hand were done with different objects, and the signal patterns from the sensors were studied and analyzed. The results suggest that LUCS Haptic Hand I provides signal patterns that are possible to categorize. Certain higher-level properties were found that can be derived from the raw data that can be used as a basis for haptic object categorization.

Haptic Perception with a Robot Hand: Requirements and Realization
This paper first discusses briefly some of the recent ideas of perceptual psychology on the human haptic system particularly those of J.J. Gibson and Klatzky and Lederman. Following this introduction, we present some of the requirements of robotic haptic sensing and the results of experiments using a Utah/~nT dexterous robot hand to derive geometric object information using active sensing.
متن کاملHaptic Perception with an Articulated, Sensate Robot Hand
In this paper we present a series of haptic exploratory procedures, or EPs, implemented for a multi-fingered, articulated, sensate robot hand. These EPs are designed to extract specific tactile and kinesthetic information from an object via their purposive invocation by an intelligent robotic system. Taken together, they form an active robotic touch perception system to be used both in extracti...
متن کاملA Haptic System for the Lucs Haptic Hand I
This paper describes a system for haptic object categorization. It consists of a robotic hand, the LUCS Haptic Hand I, together with software modules that to some extent simulate the functioning of the primary and the secondary somatosensory cortices. The haptic system is the first one in a project at LUCS aiming at studying haptic perception. In the project, several robotic hands together with...
متن کاملHaptic Perception with a Robotic Hand
We have developed an 8 d.o.f. robot hand which has been tested with three computational models of haptic perception. Two of the models are based on the tensor product of different proprioceptive and sensory signals and a self-organizing map (SOM), and one uses a novel self-organizing neural network, the T-MPSOM. The computational models have been trained and tested with a set of objects consist...
متن کاملTwo hands, one perception: how bimanual haptic information is combined by the brain.
Humans routinely use both of their hands to gather information about shape and texture of objects. Yet, the mechanisms of how the brain combines haptic information from the two hands to achieve a unified percept are unclear. This study systematically measured the haptic precision of humans exploring a virtual curved object contour with one or both hands to understand if the brain integrates hap...
