This work presents a novel object-level control framework for the dexterous in-hand manipulation of objects with torque-controlled robotic hands. The proposed impedance-based controller realizes the compliant 6-DOF positioning of a grasped object. Enabled by the in-hand localization, the slippage of
In recent years, the application of continuum mechanisms increased as they provide high dexterity, consume a low amount of space, and handle unforeseen collisions with ease. Typically, a deformation model of the continuum is applied to compute task space poses from actuator variables. However, simpl
For a robot to perform complex manipulation tasks, such as an in-hand manipulation, knowledge about the state of the grasp is required at all times. Moreover, even simple pick-and-place tasks may fail because unexpected motions of the object during the grasp are not accounted for. This letter propos
The ability to manipulate objects is the primary purpose of any robotic hand. However, when executing a grasp, the object and fingers rarely move exactly as planned. These unobserved deviations in the pose of the object or the contact configuration can make it impossible to solve a given task. In th…
