چکیده

| In this paper, we study various algorithmic questions regarding the computation of an optimal three n-ger planar grasp. We present a novel O(n 2 logn)-time algorithm to compute such an optimal grasp for an arbitrary simple n-gon. This algorithm can be used for nding \good" immobilizing sets. We also discuss several variations on the problem and many intriguing open questions in the area that remain unsolved.

THREE SCHEMES FOR ACTIVE CONTROL OF THE PLANAR FRAME

Optimal locations of the actuators for frame active control are investigated in this article. The aim is to minimize the structural drifts by employing several actuators. By utilizing genetic algorithm, the appropriate locations of the actuators are determined. They should be placed in locations where they can minimize the maximum structural drift. To explore the capability of the proposed tech...

Coordination of gaze and hand movements for tracking and tracing in 3D.

In this study we have investigated movements in three-dimensional space. Since most studies have investigated planar movements (like ellipses, cloverleaf shapes and "figure eights") we have compared two generalizations of the two-thirds power law to three dimensions. In particular we have tested whether the two-thirds power law could be best described by tangential velocity and curvature in a p...

Impedance restrictions on independent finger grippers

The impedance matrices of independent point fingers of a multifingered gripper map to the impedance matrix of a grasped workpart. We find that in a planar geometry, three fingers are enough to allow an unrestricted range of workpart impedances, if finger impedances are selectable. In a spatial geometry however, five fingers are necessary for the broadest range of workpart impedances, and even s...

Fine Manipulation with Multifinger Hands

We show the existence of two and three finger grasps in the presence of arbitrarily small friction for two and three dimensional smooth objects using a simple new technique. No convexity of the objects is assumed. We also prove the existence of finger gaits for rotating a planar object using three and four fingers. Additional results for smooth convex objects are presented which describe two di...
