چکیده

This paper presents the latest results in developing an anthropomorphic dextrous hand for a 2-years-old humanoid. As this robot is aimed to be a physical platform for cognition, the number of degrees of freedom of the upper part of the body has been maximized. The robotic hand has 20 DoFs and 9 motors to accomplish optimal grasping and manipulation. Based on the manipulation tasks required in the project and on the human hand functional anatomy, a mixed implementation of cable directed driven and underactuated joints has been designed, developed, tested and debugged. The abduction/adduction of the fingers and the hollowing of the palm have been implemented and coupled together, driven by a single actuator. The latest prototype has been developed; it includes the hand mechanism, the actuators and a proprioceptive sensory system for the joint positioning and the grasping force control. Index Terms – Cognitive, Manipulation, Hand, Humanoid, Under-actuation.

Mechanical System and Control System of a Dexterous Robot Hand

In recent years numerous robot systems with multifingered grippers or hands have been developed all around the world. Many different approaches have been taken, anthropomorphic and non-anthropomorphic ones. Not only the mechanical structure of such systems was investigated, but also the necessary control system. With the human hand as an exemplar, such robot systems use their hands to grasp div...

Dynamic Potential Fields for Dexterous Tactile Exploration

Haptic exploration of unknown objects is of great importance for acquiring multimodal object representations, which enable a humanoid robot to autonomously execute grasping and manipulation tasks. In this paper we present our ongoing work on tactile object exploration with an anthropomorphic five-finger robot hand. In particular we present a method for guiding the hand along the surface of an u...

Towards the Rationalization of anthropomorphic Robot Hand Design: Extracting Knowledge from Constrained Human Manual Dexterity Testing

In this work we take a new approach to the determination of the quantified contribution of various attributes of the human hand to its dexterity, with the aim of transposing this knowledge into supportive guidelines for the design of anthropomorphic robotic and prosthetic hands. We have carried out a number of standard dexterity tests on normal human subjects with various physical constraints a...
