Tactile sensing plays a pivotal role in achieving precise physical manipulation tasks and
extracting vital physical features. This comprehensive review paper presents an in-depth …

As automation is spreading in all the industry domains, the presence of robots is becoming
unavoidable inside factories, warehouses and manufacturing facilities. Although a great …

This paper presents a novel control approach to dealing with a slip during robotic
manipulative movements. Slip is a major cause of failure in many robotic grasping and …

Tactile sensation is one of the most important sensing methods of humans, which helps
humans complete complex decisions and actions by itself or in cooperation with other …

We study gravitational pivoting, a constrained version of in-hand manipulation, where we
aim to control the rotation of an object around the grip point of a parallel gripper. To achieve …

Reliable grasping and manipulation in daily tasks and unstructured environments require
accurate contact modeling and grasp stability estimation. A key component is the coefficient …

Real-time multi-axis distributed tactile sensing is a critical capability if robots are to perform
stable gripping and dexterous manipulation, as it provides crucial information about the …

This article proposes an optical-based tactile sensor design concept, which uses a light
angle and intensity sensor to infer force and displacement from deformations of a silicone …

The ability to detect slip, particularly incipient slip, enables robotic systems to take corrective
measures to prevent a grasped object from being dropped. Therefore, slip detection can …

A robot's ability to grasp moving objects depends on the availability of real-time sensor data
in both the far-field and near-field of the gripper. This research investigates the potential …
