Integrated force and distance sensing using elastomer-embedded commodity proximity sensors
We describe a combined force and distance sensor using a commodity infrared distance sensor embedded in a transparent elastomer with applications in robotic manipulation. Prior to contact, the sensor works as a distance sensor (0–10 cm), whereas after contact the material doubles as a spring, with force proportional to the compression of the elastomer (0– 5 N). We describe its principle of oper...
متن کاملImproving grasp performance using in-hand proximity and contact sensing
We describe the grasping and manipulation strategy that we employed at the autonomous track of the Robotic Grasping and Manipulation Competition at IROS 2016. A salient feature of our architecture is the tight coupling between visual (Asus Xtion) and tactile perception (Robotic Materials), to reduce the uncertainty in sensing and actuation. We demonstrate the importance of tactile sensing and r...
متن کاملAN1436: Proximity Sensors
Proximity sensing based upon infrared signal detection requires two parts: infrared LED and infrared sensor. The infrared LED emits infrared signal to the sensing object, a portion of that signal bounces back from the surface of sensing object, these reflected infrared signal was then captured by the infrared sensor. The intensity of captured infrared signal changes accordingly when an sensing ...
متن کاملProximity Sensing Using IEEE 802.15.4 Radios
Accurately determining the location of devices is a key challenge in contextual smart sensing. This poster describes how IEEE 802.15.4 radios can be used for accurate proximity sensing of co-located devices. In particular, the effect of low noise amplifiers on the estimation accuracy are discussed.
متن کاملShort Range Capacitive Proximity Sensing
In this paper we investigate a short range capacitive proximity sensor as complementary sensor system in situations, where conventional optical based sensor systems have short comings, e.g., due to space requirements. In the presented collision avoidance scenario it can be used even without any vision or Lidar based sensor system. Our sensor is capable of detecting humans and objects made of co...
