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 ...

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.

Mobile manipulation of humanoid robots-analysis of manipulability and stability in mobile manipulation

Proceedings. 2000 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2000) (Cat. No.00CH37113), 2002
This paper describes mobile manipulation of humanoid robots. A humanoid robot is a kind of integrated machines: two arm and two leg mechanism. It could be well applied to mobile manipulation in nonroutine task automation. The main objective of the mobile manipulation is to obtain versatile and efficient manipulation by the arms.

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)].

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

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 ...
