Searching force-closure optimal grasps of articulated 2D objects with n links
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a method that finds a locally optimal grasp of an articulated 2D object with n links considering frictionless contacts. The surface of each link of the object is represented by a finite set of points, thus it may have any shape. The proposed approach finds, first, an initial force-closure grasp and from it starts an iterative search of a local optimum grasp. The quality measure considered in this work is the largest perturbation wrench that a grasp can resist with independence of the direction of the perturbation. The approach has been implemented and some illustrative examples are included in the article.

Exploration of the grasp space using independent contact and non-graspable regions
This report presents the use of independent contact and non-graspable regions to generate the grasp space for 2D and 3D discrete objects. The grasp space is constructed via a sampling method, which provides samples of force-closure or non force-closure grasps, used to compute regions of the graspable or non-graspable space, respectively. The method provides a reliable procedure for an efficient...
متن کاملOn 2D 4-finger frictionless optimal grasps
The paper deals with the determination of optimal force-closure grasps for 2D polygonal objects. The problem is analyzed and some intrinsic properties of grasps are determined. The approach is applied to the determination of the position of a fourth finger given the positions of three other fingers. Moreover, the range of solutions that allow the force-closure property as well as the optimal va...
متن کاملGrasp Analysis and Synthesis of 2 D Articulated Objects with n Links
This paper proposes a solution to the problem of grasp analysis and synthesis of 2D articulated objects with n links considering frictionless contacts. The boundary of each link of the object is represented by a finite set of boundary points allowing links of any shape to be considered. Grasp analysis is carried out to verify whether a set of contact points on the object boundary allows a force...
متن کاملA new algorithm for three-finger force-closure grasp of polygonal objects
Abstract—We prove a new necessary and sufficient condition for 2D three-finger equilibrium grasps and implement a geometrical algorithm for computing force-closure grasps of polygonal objects in this article. The algorithm is quite simple and only needs some algebraic calculations. An easily computable measure of how far a grasp is from losing forceclosure is provided as well. Finally, we imple...
متن کاملSynthesis of force-closure grasps on 3-D objects based on the Q distance
The synthesis of force-closure grasps on three–dimensional (3-D) objects is a fundamental issue in robotic grasping and dextrous manipulation. In this paper, a numerical force-closure test is developed based on the concept of distance. With some mild and realistic assumptions, the proposed test criterion is differentiable almost everywhere and its derivative can be calculated exactly. On this b...
