This letter describes a novel grasp quality measure that we developed for evaluating antipodal grasp poses in real-time. To quantify the grasp quality, we compute a set of object movement features from analyzing the interaction between the gripper and the object's projections in the image space. The
Persons with disabilities often rely on caregivers or family members to assist in their daily living activities. Robotic assistants can provide an alternative solution if intuitive user interfaces are designed for simple operations. Current human-robot interfaces are still far from being able to ope
A simulation algorithm to predict expected upper limb movements of prosthesis users performing activities of daily living (ADL) was developed. It is quite challenging to determine the right type and fit of a prosthesis and provide appropriate training to properly utilize it. The amputee care team ty…
The human upper body has many degrees of freedom (DoFs) making it highly redundant and allowing for great flexibility during daily tasks. Because of this redundancy, each joint rarely uses its full range of motion (ROM) during activities of daily living (ADL). However, when DoFs are lost due to an a
