Tactile Recognition by Probing: Identifying a Polygon on a Plane
نویسندگان
چکیده
An outstanding problem in model-based recognition of objects by robot systems is how the system should proceed when the acquired data are in8ufRcient to identify uniquely the model instance and model pose that best interpret the object. In this paper, we consider the situation in which some tactile data about the object are already available, but can be ambiguously interpreted. The problem is thus to acquire and process new tactile data in a sequential and eflicient manner, so that the object can be recognised and its location and orientation determined. An object model, in this initial analysis of the problem, is a polygon located on a plane; the case of planar objects present8 8ome interesting problems, and is also an important prelude to recognition of three-dimensional (polyhedral) objects.

Probing Convex Polygons with Half-planes1
A half-plane probe through a polygon measures the area of intersection between a half-plane and the polygon. We dev elop techniques based on xray probing to determine convex n-gons in 7n + 7 half-plane probes. We also show n + 1 half-plane probes are sufficient to verify a specified convex polygon and prove linear lower bounds for determination and verification.

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...
متن کاملAn application of geometrical isometries in non-planar molecules
In this paper we introduce a novel methodology to transmit the origin to the center of a polygon in a molecule structure such that the special axis be perpendicular to the plane containing the polygon. The mathematical calculation are described completely and the algorithm will be showed as a computer program.
متن کاملMatching of Polygon Objects by Optimizing Geometric Criteria
Despite the semantic criteria, geometric criteria have different performances on polygon feature matching in different vector datasets. By using these criteria for measuring the similarity of two polygons in all matchings, the same results would not have been obtained. To achieve the best matching results, the determination of optimal geometric criteria for each dataset is considered necessary....
متن کاملA system design for tactile recognition of human-robot contact state
AbsrraclIn this paper, we propose a method for designing an identifcation system of human-robot contact states based on tactile recognition. First, a method of quantifying tactile cognition of a human (receiver) touched by other people (toucher) osing a neural network called MCP (Modified CounterPropagation ) is presented, which matches the verbal response by the receiver with tactile stimulati...
