We propose an evaluation method of grasp stability which takes into account the elastic deformation of fingertips from the viewpoint of energy. An evaluation value of grasp stability is derived as the minimum energy which causes slippage of a fingertip on its contact surface. To formulate the evaluation value, the elastic potential energy of fingertips and the gravitational potential energy of a grasped...
This paper presents a grasp planner which allows a robot to grasp the constricted parts of objects in our daily life. Even though constricted parts can be grasped more firmly than convex parts, previous planners have not sufficiently focused on grasping this part. We develop techniques for quadric surface approximation, grasp posture generation, and stability evaluation for grasping constricted parts...
We propose a planning method for a gripper grasping daily life objects using quadric surface approximation. This method can decompose the objects to the approximate quadric surfaces. The planner can find regions for contacting fingers quickly so that the gripper grasps the object firmly. The planner evaluates the grasp stability for these postures. The previous evaluation method in surface contact...
