Robot Manipulation: Sensing and Adapting to the Real World
نویسندگان
چکیده
There is a resurgence of interest in robot manipulation as researchers seek to push autonomous manipulation out of controlled laboratory settings and into real-world applications such as health care, generalized factory automation, domestic assistance, and space exploration. This workshop facilitated progress towards these goals by focusing on autonomous robot manipulation and the requisite sensing and adaptation. The workshop was a full-day event consisting of nine talks, four discussions, two poster sessions, and demos which are summarized below.

The Design and Realization of a Sensitive Walking Platform
Legged locomotion provides robots with the capability of adapting to different terrain conditions. General complex terrain traversal methodologies solely rely on proprioception which readily leads to instability under dynamical situations. Biological legged locomotion utilizes somatosensory feedback to sense the real-time interaction of the feet with ground to enhance stability. Nevertheless, l...
متن کاملManipulation Control of a Flexible Space Free Flying Robot Using Fuzzy Tuning Approach
Cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. During such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. Therefore, to design and dev...

متن کاملOptimal Trajectory Planning of a Box Transporter Mobile Robot
This paper aims to discuss the requirements of safe and smooth trajectory planning of transporter mobile robots to perform non-prehensile object manipulation task. In non-prehensile approach, the robot and the object must keep their grasp-less contact during manipulation task. To this end, dynamic grasp concept is employed for a box manipulation task and corresponding conditions are obtained an...
متن کاملManipulation in Clutter with Whole-Arm Tactile Sensing
We begin this paper by presenting our approach to robot manipulation, which emphasizes the benefits of making contact with the world across the entire manipulator. We assume that low contact forces are benign, and focus on the development of robots that can control their contact forces during goaldirected motion. Inspired by biology, we assume that the robot has low-stiffness actuation at its j...
