Natural Grasp Intention Recognition Based on Gaze in Human-Robot Interaction.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
OBJECTIVE: While neuroscience research has established a link between vision and intention, studies on gaze data features for intention recognition are absent. The majority of existing gaze-based intention recognition approaches are based on delibera...

A flexible tactile sensor based on piezoresistive thin film for 3D force detection.

The Review of scientific instruments
This paper presents a flexible tactile sensor with a compact structure based on a piezoresistive thin film and an elastomer for detecting three-dimensional (3D) force. The film contains four independent sensing cells, which were made using a type of ...

Influence of the stress level on the execution of the Grooved Pegboard Test.

The Journal of sports medicine and physical fitness
BACKGROUND: The Grooved Pegboard Test (GPT) is a widely adopted test to evaluate manual dexterity. A factor that could influence the cognitive process is physical and mental stress, which could be controlled by respiration. Stress can be monitored th...

Effect of variable transmission on body-powered prosthetic grasping.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Body-powered upper-limb prostheses remain a popular option for those with limb absence due to their passive nature. These devices typically feature a constant transmission ratio between the forces input by the user and the grasp forces output by the ...

A sEMG Proportional Control for the Gripper of Patient Side Manipulator in da Vinci Surgical System.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
There is a large community of people with hand disabilities, and these disabilities can be a barrier to those looking to retain or pursue surgical careers. With the development of surgical robotics technologies, it may be possible to develop user int...

EMG Data Augmentation for Grasp Classification Using Generative Adversarial Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Electromyography (EMG) has been used as an interface for the control of robotic hands for decades but with the improvement of embedded electronics and decoding algorithms, many applications are now envisaged by companies. Deep learning has shown the ...

A Soft Robotic Gripper Based on Bioinspired Fingers.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In the past, partly due to modeling complexities and technical constraints, fingers of soft grippers are rarely driven by high number of actuators, which leads to lack of dexterity. Here we propose a soft robotic gripper with modular anthropomorphic ...

A brain-computer interface that evokes tactile sensations improves robotic arm control.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
Prosthetic arms controlled by a brain-computer interface can enable people with tetraplegia to perform functional movements. However, vision provides limited feedback because information about grasping objects is best relayed through tactile feedback...

Manipulation for self-Identification, and self-Identification for better manipulation.

Science robotics
The process of modeling a series of hand-object parameters is crucial for precise and controllable robotic in-hand manipulation because it enables the mapping from the hand's actuation input to the object's motion to be obtained. Without assuming tha...

Grasping with kirigami shells.

Science robotics
The ability to grab, hold, and manipulate objects is a vital and fundamental operation in biological and engineering systems. Here, we present a soft gripper using a simple material system that enables precise and rapid grasping, and can be miniaturi...
