A Multidirectional Textile Interface for Remote Control Using Dynamic Area‐Based Capacitance Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Here, we present a textile, wearable capacitive interface enabling multidirectional remote control by dynamically modulating electrode overlap and spacing via a freely gliding upper electrode. A forearm‐mounted prototype drives robotic and media tasks with 12–15 ms latency, maintains < 0.8% drift after 500 cycles, and remains stably functional at 90 ...

Dexterous Grasp Transformer

open access: yes2024 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR)
In this work, we propose a novel discriminative framework for dexterous grasp generation, named Dexterous Grasp TRansformer (DGTR), capable of predicting a diverse set of feasible grasp poses by processing the object point cloud with only one forward pass.
