A Lightweight Beak-Like Sensing System for Grasping Tasks of Flapping Aerial Robots

نویسندگان

چکیده

Many sensor systems in robotics are bio-inspired by similar mechanisms living creatures. Birds frequently use their beaks to grasp and manipulate objects. This work proposes a very lightweight system that emulates bird’s beak, thus allowing flapping aerial robots interact with the environment, as e.g. perform grasping or manipulation tasks. The is composed of flexible link (beam) actuated micro servomotor, two strain gauges placed on different points rigid opposed. Additionally, new algorithm also developed estimates instant at which beak impacts an object, contact position exerted force. Our outperforms existing designs applications, because it lightweight, small, cheap, low computational load without any complementary perception. It demonstrated adequate placement allow estimation point force between beam accuracy achieved enough reckon properties object develop control systems. validation has been made reported through finite-element simulations experiments, results illustrate efficiency prototype proposed algorithm.

Fast Object Recognition for Grasping Tasks using Industrial Robots

Working in unstructured assembly robotic environments, i.e. with unknown part location; the robot has to accurately not only to locate the part, but also to recognize it in readiness for grasping. The aim of this research is to develop a fast and robust approach to accomplish this task. We propose an approach to aid the learning of assembly parts on-line. The approach which is based on ANN and ...

Outperforming hummingbirds’ load-lifting capability with a lightweight hummingbird-like flapping-wing mechanism

The stroke-cam flapping mechanism presented in this paper closely mimics the wing motion of a hovering Rufous hummingbird. It is the only lightweight hummingbird-sized flapping mechanism which generates a harmonic wing stroke with both a high flapping frequency and a large stroke amplitude. Experiments on a lightweight prototype of this stroke-cam mechanism on a 50 mm-long wing demonstrate that...
