A two-fingered underactuated anthropomorphic manipulator based on human precision manipulation motions

ICRA 2016poster

While designing robot hands based on grasping data is more common, fewer previous works have used details of human manipulation kinematics to improve robot hand design. The current work involves an underactuated, tendon driven, anthropomorphic manipulator with two flexor tendons and an abduction-add…

Patterned compliance in robotic finger pads for versatile surface usage in dexterous manipulation

ICRA 2015poster

The design of finger pads for robotic and prosthetic hands is often overlooked, with relatively simple shapes and mechanical properties typically used. The finger pad geometry and mechanical properties are especially important for within-hand dexterous manipulation, and human finger usage patterns s…
