Certified Grasping

open access: yesThe International Journal of Robotics Research, 2022
This paper studies the robustness of grasping in the frictionless plane from a geometric perspective. By treating grasping as a process that shapes the free-space object over time, we define three types of certificates to guarantee success of a grasp: (a) invariance under an initial set, (b) convergence toward a goal grasp, and (c) observability over ...

Is It Pointing to Grasping or Grasping Pointing? [PDF]

open access: yesMotor Control, 1999
The Smeets and Brenner view on grasping is simple: grasping is in fact pointing. In our comments we examine the model beyond the reach-to-grasp task namely, by grasping (without reaching) of moving objects and eating. The model fits the data of both tasks.

GRASP: A Multitasking Tether [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2016
Originally identified as Golgi stacking factors in vitro, the Golgi reassembly stacking protein (GRASP) family has been shown to act as membrane tethers with multiple cellular roles. As an update to previous comprehensive reviews of the GRASP family (Giuliani et al., 2011; Vinke et al., 2011; Jarvela and Linstedt, 2012), we outline here the latest ...

Grasping with the eyes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2011
When observing someone else acting on an object, people implement goal-specific eye movement programs that are driven by their own motor representation of the observed action. Usually, however, we observe people acting in contexts where more objects, different in shape and size, are present.

A grasp of identity [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Physics, 2015
We revisit the treatment of identical particles in quantum mechanics. Two kinds of solutions of Schrödinger equation are found and analyzed. First, the known symmetrized and antisymmetrized eigenfunctions. We examine how the very concept of particle is blurred whithin this approach. Second, we propose another kind of solution with no symmetries that we

Quantification of Movement-Related EEG Correlates Associated with Motor Training: A Study on Movement-Related Cortical Potentials and Sensorimotor Rhythms

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
The ability to learn motor tasks is important in both healthy and pathological conditions. Measurement tools commonly used to quantify the neurophysiological changes associated with motor training such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and functional ...

A Biologically Inspired Dexterous Robot Hand with High Grip Force [PDF]

open access: yes한국정밀공학회지, 2019
This paper presents a robot hand inspired from grasp and grip mechanism of human hand. In human hand, grasp and grip are different terms: Human hand can grasp an object adaptively by individual pulling of each finger’s tendon.

Customizing mesoscale self-assembly with three-dimensional printing

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
Self-assembly due to capillary forces is a common method for generating two-dimensional mesoscale structures from identical floating particles at the liquid–air interface. Designing building blocks to obtain a desired mesoscopic structure is a scientific

Grasping the Inconspicuous

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
Transparent objects are common in day-to-day life and hence find many applications that require robot grasping. Many solutions toward object grasping exist for non-transparent objects. However, due to the unique visual properties of transparent objects, standard 3D sensors produce noisy or distorted measurements.

Active Sound Localization in a Symmetric Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2013
Localization for humanoid robots becomes difficult when events that disrupt robot positioning information occur. This holds especially true in symmetric environments because landmark data may not be sufficient to determine orientation.
