Five-Fingered Passive Force Feedback Glove Using a Variable Ratio Lever Mechanism
Actuators, 2021 Force feedback gloves allow users to touch and manipulate virtual objects intuitively. Compared with gloves providing active feedback force, gloves with passive feedback force are promising in terms of safety and low weight, but simulating the variable ...

Birds land reliably on complex surfaces by adapting their foot-surface interactions upon contact
eLife, 2019 Birds land on a wide range of complex surfaces, yet it is unclear how they grasp a perch reliably. Here, we show how Pacific parrotlets exhibit stereotyped leg and wing dynamics regardless of perch diameter and texture, but foot, toe, and claw kinematics

Grasping Weber’s Law in a Virtual Environment: The Effect of Haptic Feedback
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Recent findings suggest that the functional separation between vision-for-action and vision-for-perception does not generalize to situations in which virtual objects are used as targets. For instance, unlike actions toward real objects that violate Weber’

Machines, 2023 This article presents a model of a novel 4-DOF kinematically redundant planar parallel grasping manipulator. As distinct from the traditional 4-DOF manipulator, the proposed design includes an extensible platform, which provides kinematic redundancy ...

, 1999 Reaching out for an object is often described as consisting of two components that are based on different visual information. Information about the objects position and orientation guides the hand to the object, while information about the objects ...

Learning Grasp Affordance Densities
Paladyn, 2011 We address the issue of learning and representing object grasp affordance models. We model grasp affordances with continuous probability density functions (grasp densities) which link object-relative grasp poses to their success probability.

The hand grasps the centre, while the eyes saccade to the top of novel objects
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 In the present study, we investigated whether indenting the sides of novel objects (e.g., product packaging) would influence where people grasp, and hence focus their gaze, under the assumption that gaze precedes grasping.

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016 When balance is exposed to perturbations, hand contacts are often used to assist postural control. We investigated the immediate and the transitionary effects of supportive hand contacts during continuous anteroposterior perturbations of stance by ...

Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022 Two sub-problems are typically identified for the replication of human finger motions on artificial hands: the measurement of the motions on the human side and the mapping method of human hand movements (primary hand) on the robotic hand (target hand ...
