An arm wrestling robot was developed at the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research (EMPA) in order to demonstrate the potential of the dielectric elastomer (DE) actuator technology in a humanoid robotic system, where the unique properties of this material system come to a significant design parameter.

Shadow Puppetry with Robotic Arms
Proceedings of the 25th ACM international conference on Multimedia, 2017In this work, we aim to introduce our framework that performs the hand shadow puppetry using robotic arms. Human arms are not flexible and dynamic enough to produce many complicated shadow poses so we aim to utilize robotic arms for shadow puppetry. Firstly, we construct a shadow library to cover all the possible shadow images for a single robotic hand.

Perception Enhanced Robotic Arm
2015 IEEE 12th Intl Conf on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing and 2015 IEEE 12th Intl Conf on Autonomic and Trusted Computing and 2015 IEEE 15th Intl Conf on Scalable Computing and Communications and Its Associated Workshops (UIC-ATC-ScalCom), 2015Now, robots are widely used within industry productions. However, with robots alone, they can only do repetitive and fixed works which is clumsy and inflexible. On the other hand, as imperious demands of elderly-care, medical-assistance and service-industry assistance are increased, more intelligent and flexible robots are needed.

Fluoroscopic C-arms are common devices for acquiring images during surgery. Manual positioning is time consuming and requires considerable experience. Trained users must often take several images to find the best viewing direction. If a second image must be taken from the same position, e.g.

IEEE Journal on Robotics and Automation, 1986
As a first step in control of two-arm robots, it is necessary to determine the kinematic relationships between the two end-effectors at any instant. The elements Of the orientation-position matrix of a dual (slave) arm are obtained in terms of those of the main (master) arm, so that the kinematic equations of each can be individually solved.

Behavioral control of a robot arm
Proceedings 1995 Second New Zealand International Two-Stream Conference on Artificial Neural Networks and Expert Systems, 2002This paper describes a novel trainable controller which extends the feedback-error paradigm of Kawato (1987), called an adaptive trajectory generator. The controller can be adapted so that a controlled system shows a behavior which is specified using heuristic rules. The training algorithm is simple and computationally inexpensive. Its effectiveness is
