A parallel manipulator for mobile manipulating UAVs

2015 IEEE International Conference on Technologies for Practical Robot Applications (TePRA), 2015
Manipulating objects using arms mounted to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is attractive because UAVs may access many locations that are otherwise inaccessible to traditional mobile manipulation platforms such as ground vehicles. Most previous efforts seeking to coordinate the combined manipulator-UAV system have focused on using a manipulator to ...

UMI on Legs: Making Manipulation Policies Mobile with Manipulation-Centric Whole-body Controllers

Conference on Robot Learning
We introduce UMI-on-Legs, a new framework that combines real-world and simulation data for quadruped manipulation systems. We scale task-centric data collection in the real world using a hand-held gripper (UMI), providing a cheap way to demonstrate task ...

Stackable manipulator for mobile manipulation robot

2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2012
This paper proposes a new manipulator concept applied to a mobile robot manipulation system for reducing robot size and weight or increasing its work capacities such as a payload, operating radius, and operating speed. In detail, we propose a new robotic manipulator that uses stackable 4-BAR mechanisms for mobile manipulation robot.

Manipulation of a flexible object by dual manipulators

Proceedings of 1995 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2002
Proposes a control algorithm of dual manipulators handling a flexible sheet metal. How to bend a sheet metal and how to manipulate the deformed sheet are discussed in this paper. First the authors derive the relation between the static deformation of the sheet metal and the bending moments exerted on the sheet using Lagrange's equation based on a ...

ManTra-Net: Manipulation Tracing Network for Detection and Localization of Image Forgeries With Anomalous Features

Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019
To fight against real-life image forgery, which commonly involves different types and combined manipulations, we propose a unified deep neural architecture called ManTra-Net.

The Art of Manipulation: Learning to Manipulate Blindly

2018 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2018
Performing skillfull manipulation is a very challenging task for robots. So far, even experts could barely program them to e.g. perform the well known peg-in-hole problem in the real world. Autonomously acquiring such skills, let alone generalizing them to new tasks, is still a major challenge.

A study on the manipulability measures for robot manipulators

Proceedings of the 1997 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robot and Systems. Innovative Robotics for Real-World Applications. IROS '97, 2002
Regarding the dexterousness measure of robot manipulators, two geometric tools, manipulability ellipsoids and manipulability polytopes, are examined and compared with each other. Even though the manipulability ellipsoid approach is the most widely used techniques, it is shown that the manipulability ellipsoid does not transform the exact joint velocity

Manipulability and Static Stability of Parallel Manipulators

Multibody System Dynamics, 2003
In earlier papers, P. Maisser developed a systematic analytical approach for the derivation of kinematic relationships of holonomic (geometric) constrained mechanical systems (CMS) [\textit{P. Maisser}, Z, Angew. Math. Mech. 71, No. 4, 116--119 (1991); Nonlinear Anal., Theory Methods Appl. 30, No. 8, 5127--5133 (1997; Zbl 0908.70007)].

Managing Manipulation

Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, 1986
Skillful nurses will recognize the manipulative client's need for trust, security, and control and will use effective therapeutic responses. The result is positive learning for both nurses and clients.

Translational and rotational manipulability of robotic manipulators

Proceedings IECON '91: 1991 International Conference on Industrial Electronics, Control and Instrumentation, 1990
Several results offering insight into the properties of the manipulability measure are presented based on the idea of separating the total manipulability measure into translational and rotational manipulability measures. It is shown that if a manipulator consists of an arm portion with three joints and a spherical wrist portion with three or more ...
