Handling fragile objects at high speeds presents a significant challenge. To address this challenge, researchers explored hybrid grippers and grippers with adjustable stiffness. However, grippers exhibiting anisotropic stiffness have received little attention. This paper presents an extreme case of …
Effective impact mitigation strategies are cru- cial for preventing potential damage to both robotic sys- tems and their operational environments during high-velocity and dynamic maneuvers, as well as during the execution of high-precision tasks. The successful implementation of impact mitigation st…
For robots with low rigidity, determining the robot's state based solely on kinematics is challenging. This is particularly crucial for a robot whose entire body is in contact with the environment, as accurate state estimation is essential for environmental interaction. We propose a method for simul…

Grasping an unknown object is difficult for robot hands. When the characteristics of the object are unknown, knowing how to plan the speed at and width to which the fingers are narrowed is difficult. In this letter, we propose a method to realize the three functions of simultaneous finger contact, i
Dexterous manipulation using an under-actuated hand has been a challenging task due to its non-linear dynamical characteristics. For a linkage-based under-actuated hand designed to be used to grasp and manipulate large, heavy, and rigid objects stably, precision grasping is necessary, which makes th…
