Autonomous robotic handling requires accurate 3-D scene measurement followed by grasp planning. Conventional systems struggle with transparent or specular objects. Additionally, in hand-eye setups, moving through multiple viewpoints increases handling execution time. In this paper, we propose HEAPGr

A novel compact parallel gripper with wide stroke is proposed in this paper. Conventional parallel grippers with linear guide mechanisms have been widely utilized as end effectors of robots, especially in industrial fields, because of its simple mechanism and low cost nature. However, the width of t…
Future robots are expected to share the same workspace with humans and work in cooperation with them to improve productivity and maintain the quality of products. Considering this situation, we have developed a novel assembly task co-worker robot to support workers in their task by delivering the pa
This study analyzed the precision grip force for the underactuated gripper for power and precision grasp (uGRIPP). uGRIPP is a robot hand developed for dual arm manipulation. It can grasp objects through power and precision grips. For a more detailed analysis of the performance on the grip force and…
In this paper, we address an issue on non-existence of a CAD model of an object in a model-based virtual visual servoing system. The approach for reconstructing a 3D model with fewer faces from point cloud data is presented. Because of a number of faces on the model surface, this reconstructed model…
