This paper presents a three-degrees-of-freedom (DOF) gravity compensation mechanism for the waists of cooperative robots whose centers of mass change according to the arm poses. It comprises 2-DOF and 1-DOF gravity compensation mechanisms in series, and is capable of natural and agile motions such a…
This letter presents a novel three degree-of-freedom finger mechanism that features excellent impact absorbing performance, high force, and precision comparable to human hands. Inspired by human fingers, it has a simple structure with a minimum number of rigid components: seven rigid frames, several
In this paper, a dual-arm robot system for high-speed manipulations, which is named LIMS2-AMBIDEX and is developed to compete in the IROS2018 Robotic Challenge, is presented. It has two seven-degrees-of-freedom (DO FF) lightweight arms, a three-DOF head, and a one-DOF gripper to manipulate foldable…
