Learning Dextrous Manipulation Skills for Multifingered Robot Hands Using the Evolution Strategy
1998
Machine Learning
We present a method for autonomous learning of dextrous manipulation skills with multifingered robot hands. ...
Our approach consists of learning and storing a few basic manipulation primitives for a few prototypical objects and then using an associative memory to obtain the required parameters for new objects and ...
This observation has been used in other systems (e.g., Narasimhan, 1988) for computing the inverse kinematics of the Utah/MIT hand. ...

A handy new design paradigm
2011
Mechanical Sciences
Current industrial grippers are robust, but lack the flexibility that allows for in hand manipulation. ...
The authors believe that underactuated grippers provide the best approach to allow for in hand manipulation along with being rugged enough for an industrial setting. ...
New motion planning techniques need to incorporate environmental factors in conjunction with the DOF of the robot. ...

Milli-robotics for remote, minimally invasive surgery
1997
Robotics and Autonomous Systems
We also discuss the need for modeling compliant tissue for telepresent manipulation and training. We, then, describe a test bed telesurgical workstation that has been set up at Berkeley. ...
Thus, the need for milli-robotics for this surgery and the need for new kinds of robots, tactile and visual sensors, and human-machine interfaces. ...
Several groups have produced prototype computer graphics simulators that create virtual environments for surgical training [26] . ...

OctoMag: An electromagnetic system for 5-DOF wireless micromanipulation
2010
2010 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation
OctoMag was primarily designed for the control of intraocular microrobots for delicate retinal procedures, but also has potential uses in other medical applications or micromanipulation under an optical ...
In its current configuration the OctoMag is capable of creating field gradients up to 2 T/m and orienting fields up to 50 mT while steering the robot. ...

On the development of intrinsically-actuated, multisensory dexterous robotic hands
2016
ROBOMECH Journal
According to different application scenarios, we develop robot hands in two parallel lines, dexterous robotic hand and anthropomorphic prosthetic hand. ...
In this paper, we first make a brief review on the development of dexterous robotic/prosthetic hands, and then detail our design philosophy of several robot hands. ...
For achieving delicate manipulations, the DRHs need to know necessary information about its outer environment (obstacles) and the object (stiffness, size, shape, and weight) to operate. ...

Virtual environment display system
1987
Proceedings of the 1986 workshop on Interactive 3D graphics - SI3D '86
A head-mounted, wide-angle, stereoscopic display system controlled by operator position, voice and gesture has been developed for use as a multipurpose interface environment. ...
The system provides a multisensory, interactive display environment in which a user can virtually explore a 360degree synthesized or remotely sensed environment and can viscerally interact with its components ...
With this capability, the operator can pick-up and manipulate virtual objects that appear in the surrounding virtual environment. ...
