In this paper, we propose a new method for calculation of the contact region and the location of an object from the data acquired from vision-based tactile sensor, which touch pad is an elastic transparent membrane of silicon rubber with dotted pattern printed on its inner side. The membrane is filled with translucent red colored water. The algorithm for calculation of the contact region is based...
In this paper, we propose a new slippage degree estimation method, where the vision-based tactile sensor was used to measure multi-dimensional force and moment in contact with an object. We proposed a new method using a reference image to obtain the stick ratio. The reference image is defined as previous image from which the grasped object moves a certain distance while updating the images. We show...
The collection of low resistive particles from diesel engine emission is difficult by the conventional electrostatic precipitators (ESPs). The low resistive diesel engine particles are detached from the collection plate, which causes the dust reentrainment, resulting in poor collection efficiency. The new electrohydrodynamically (EHD) assisted ESP (EHD ESP) was developed to minimize reentrainment...
A new controller scheme based on the observer based stabilizing controller with a simplified design is proposed in this paper. The proposed controller scheme has position tracking property and disturbance estimation property. By applying these properties to teleoperation control, a master-slave system without force sensors is obtained. The effectiveness of the controller scheme is verified by experiments.
The Japan population decrease since 2005. In particular, the working population has begun to decrease in 1995. In our former study, the death toll of the three major causes of deaths in Japan was estimated until in 2060. These three major causes of deaths are malignant neoplasms, heart diseases and cerebro-vascular diseases. These have more influences on a senior population. However, an effect of...
