چکیده

A tactile camera is a sensing system allows robotic systems to orientate and explore their surroundings by purely relying on tactile information. Real world application scenario for such devices are hazy water conditions where underwater robotic systems need to work. Building up such a system for underwater includes several challenges which need to be considered while chosing appropriate sensors. We describe our sensor system, the electronical interface and show that local sensor data preprocessing is necessary in this system and how we want to realise this.

Design and Modeling of a New Type of Tactile Sensor Based on the Deformation of an Elastic Membrane

This paper presents the design and modeling of a flexible tactile sensor, capable of detecting the 2D surface texture image, contact-force estimation and stiffness of the sensed object. The sensor is made of polymer materials. It consists of a cylindrical chamber for pneumatic actuation and a membrane with a mesa structure. The inner radius of the cylindrical chamber is 2cm and its outer radius...

Soft Pneumatic Actuator Skin with Piezoelectric Sensors for Vibrotactile Feedback

The latest wearable technologies demand more intuitive and sophisticated interfaces for communication, sensing, and feedback closer to the body. Evidently, such interfaces require flexibility and conformity without losing their functionality even on rigid surfaces. Although there have been various research efforts in creating tactile feedback to improve various haptic interfaces and master–slav...

Coordinated Motion Control of a 3-Link Dual-Arm Underwater Vehicle-Manipulator System Using Resolved Acceleration Control Method

This paper presents a digital resolved acceleration control method for coordinated motion control of an underwater vehicle equipped with manipulators. Using this method, in spite of large position and attitude errors of the underwater vehicle, good control performances of the end-tips of the manipulators to follow a pre-planned trajectory can be achieved. In this work, theoretical work of the p...

Dynamic Modeling of Underwater Manipulator and Its Simulation

High redundancy and strong uncertainty are two main characteristics for underwater robotic manipulators with unlimited workspace and mobility, but they also make the motion planning and control difficult and complex. In order to setup the groundwork for the research on control schemes, the mathematical representation is built by using the Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) method [9]&[12]; in addition to...
